PD's would not be one of my most important metrics for judging DBs.
Well you are entitled to your opinion, but that opinion doesn’t coincide with the NFL. PD were one if his top scoring metrics used. I can’t imagine a non biased group claiming that defending passes isn’t counted as a strong metric for gauging success at Boundary CB. Maby Top CB’s in 2025 were in the Top 20 list of Passes Defensed.

Mike Jackson
Riley Moss
Tyson Campbell
Emmanuel Forbes Jr
DJ Turner
Keisean Nixon (PB Alternate)
Quinyon Mitchell (1st Team)

Kool Aid McKinstry
Kamari Lassiter (PB Alternate)
Cooper DeJean (1st Team)


That’s your top 10 in the NFL last year at PD. 4 of those 10 were awarded 1st Team All Pro, Probowl or Probowl Alternates. Defending Passes isn’t the only metric, but it’s an integral part of playing CB successfully.

I can't imagine anyone watching the games last year come away with Keisean being better than Bull.

Also, it's far more likely Bull is better this year
The reason I agree with this is IMO the better you are, the less they throw your way. The less they throw at you, the fewer chances you have for PDs. IMO Deion Sanders never ranked very high in PDs.

Pro-Bowls have even less meaning than PDs.

Im with that 100% as well.
