I don't think many are saying CJ sucks, I think that what a number of people (including myself) are saying is that right now, he's a player that is in the "Hall of Very Good" rather than the Hall of Fame.
He's not a player that at this point in time and in his career, that you sign to a deal as the 2nd highest paid Defensive Player in the NFL. And unfortunately, many of the comparisons I see tossed around on this thread discussing his impact, ability, or playstyle are to guys like Aaron Donald, Derrick Thomas (much earlier in this thread), and Reggie White.
These are all guys that were vastly more inherently talented than CJ95 in my opinion, making those comparisons a bit problematic.
I think that many of us are in agreement, just (in my case) when comparisons are placed to players who are vastly more talented, the comparison seems invalid.
