It's utterly ridiculous how good Sneed has been. It's even more ridiculous how little recognition he gets for it.
To snag a legit shutdown corner in the 4th round is just plain amazing. We'll be paying him next to nothing the next 3 years to cover the opposing team's top receiver. These are the kind of picks your GM has to make when you're paying your QB $500 million and want to remain competitive. With him, Fenton and Ward we'll have our top 3 corners making peanuts next year. |

They mentioned Sneed in the broadcast. The thing is it takes a few years for people to recognize shutdown corners because they don't get the interceptions.
But people who know, know. Sneed is a way better player than say, oh I dunno Marcus Peters. |

He is all over the field, has even been effective on the blitz. Just an instinctive player.

He is. When other GMs saw him move to safety, that was considered a con. Veach/Spags were like "Where the **** do I sign up?"
Wharton is going to be up there as well regarding "steals." The guy is nearly unblockable.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Sneed didn't play BUF back in week 6 or whatever? So something new for Allen to have to deal with?

No he didn't and if we stick him on Diggs that could be huge.

Maybe Sneed/Thornhill on Diggs? Not a big fan of putting a rookie alone on Diggs. Sounds like too big of a risk.
Spags will have a good plan, we know that. Probably some mixture of guys in coverage on Diggs. I think last time he employed some version of the box on Diggs. But he didn't have Sneed, and I think Ward was still dealing with a broken hand, so maybe he spends less resources this time? Will be interesting to see what he does.

As good as Sneed has been, Breeland and Ward have been excellent as well. I'm pretty damn comfortable with any of those guys on Diggs TBH.

Meh, we're going to mix coverages throughout the game, as we always do. Against Allen, it's a must. There won't be "one guy" on Diggs or any other receiver.

That's a good point. Sneed playing definitely helps though

I just don’t see them taking Sneed out of his current role (slot CB), to follow Diggs around. Spags clearly likes what he brings with the blitz (3 sacks in last 3 games), and he’s really physical defending the run.
He could largely erase Beasley, let two other guys double Diggs. |
