Jason Webster

Mike Rumph needs to be on that list. Webster wasn't bad and was effective until injuries curtailed his career. The decision to let Eric Davis go and sign Pope was a poor one and came back to haunt them, especially when facing GB in the playoffs '95-'98

IMO, Marquez Pope was sold when he played. His issue was staying healthy.

Darnell Walker at one point was our best CB. It doesn't mean he was ok, it was at a point when we had no one better.

Jason Webster was not that bad. He had a long NFL career.

Tyronne Drakeford can be on the list.

I remember Drakeford his rookie year during training camp in Rocklin. He got absolutely pancaked by Derrick Deese in one of the practices

at the time, Jim Mora then DB coach referred to Darnell Walker as his 'savior'... he was a box of chocolates, sometimes you got the chocolate mocha, other times the chocolate shell with the squishy gross cherry inside... but he was FAST

Looking good now. And in the future with Spoon, Moseley, and Williams.
