Skrine's pass rush skills are uncanny for a DB.

    +1. I think these guys have been undervalued in the modern NFL. One of the unsung properties of both the Seahawks and the Patsies was their defensive backfield _depth_. Brady shredded a pass defense with Sherman and Earl Thomas, simply by ignoring them and throwing at the other guys.

    You can have Revis and Cro, but you don't want to get burned at the next level. I think Skrine is going to be a really key player here.

    Quickly becoming my favorite player on this team. I did not imagine he would have made this much of an impact when we signed him.

    Now I see why they targeted him in FA.. he is tailor made for what they want to do on defense. So far I love what I see out of Skrine. He's a great player on 3rd down too and that's huge

    I think they're about to finish polishing that diamond at this point. He's been an absolute stud thus far.
