Yall in here slandering the Senator
Byron Jones best attribute was that the other 10 players on our defense were so trash, the QB and OC just focused on them.
He was a very good matchup vs opposing TEs, I’ll give him that.
Did he actually go to the Dolphins or did he just retire?
Yea he been stealing checks the last two years but they going to cut him
Byron "Safe Negro" Jones was so damn overrated.
You gotta be shytting me. Post the elite numbers Byron put up, I’ll wait.This franchise is quickly becoming one of themslt hatin ass group ever. Now Byron wasn’t elite?
He was elite in 2018 and very good in 2919. he was an all-pro before he left Dallas.You gotta be shytting me. Post the elite numbers Byron put up, I’ll wait.
I heard this in the preseason before his hamstring explodedBoth Broaddus and Gelhken said their sources told them Tyron looks incredible.

One part of any good cornerback’s game is press coverage, and Jones was one of the best at that very thing last season. As an outside cornerback in the Cowboys’ Cover-1/Cover-3 scheme, Jones was used in press coverage on a whopping 448 snaps last year, which is 40 more than the next cornerback (Steven Nelson, 408) and nearly 90 more than the next player after that (Stephon Gilmore, 359). Jones was used in press coverage for a reason — he was one of the very best in the league when lined up in right in front of the opposing receiver.
Jones had a coverage grade of 82.2 when in press coverage, ranking seventh out of 80 cornerbacks who had at least 100 press coverage snaps. The fact that Jones was able to maintain such a high grade in press coverage — which is a risky coverage by nature — given his high volume is even more impressive, especially when you consider the fact that among the 17 cornerbacks with at least 250 snaps in press coverage, Jones was one of only two to earn a coverage grade of 80.0 or higher.
Diving further into his press-coverage numbers, Jones allowed just 0.78 yards per cover snap, ranking seventh among cornerbacks, and he had a forced incompletion rate of 24.5% that ranked sixth. Additionally, Jones allowed a reception just once every 17.1 press-coverage snaps, ranking fourth at the position. Evidently, Jones is an absolute monster when he’s in the wide receiver’s face at the snap.
Diggs got that off his interceptions numbers. Dude was not lockdown last year and you fukking know itAnd Diggs was all pro in year 2. How was homeless man’s Nnamdi better?
That wasn’t the argument, the argument is who was better. Diggs got his all-pro off of numbers the way you are supposed to. Byron got his all-pro (second team) by camping on one side of the field ducking all of the elite matchups.Diggs got that off his interceptions numbers.

By virtue of being an elite corner and being one of the least thrown at corners in the league his last two years here, he doesn't have "elite numbers".You gotta be shytting me. Post the elite numbers Byron put up, I’ll wait.
His dallas career is irrelevant. No memorable plays, its like he was never here. JAGBy virtue of being an elite corner and being one of the least thrown at corners in the league his last two years here, he doesn't have "elite numbers".
No elite corners do...cause nobody throws at them.
But as soon as he left we had a historically bad defense . I wonder if the two were related
By this logic, our defense went from historically bad to historically good once Diggs started playing full seasons last year and this year, yeah?By virtue of being an elite corner and being one of the least thrown at corners in the league his last two years here, he doesn't have "elite numbers".
