Keenan Lewis one of the best CBs in the league?

Yes, according to Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman.

Richard Sherman Thinks Keenan Lewis Is One Of The Best Cornerbacks In The League

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman was a guest Friday on NFL Total Access and was asked who he thinks are the best cornerbacks in the league besides himself. His answer included a somewhat surprising name from the Pittsburgh Steelers.

"Well if Darrelle Revis is playing then I would say it's him, but this year he didn't get a chance to play," started Sherman. "So there were some pretty good performances. Tim Jennings had a great year, but I think it would be out of, surprisingly, Antonio Cromartie, and Keenan Lewis from Pittsburgh doesn't get a lot of respect because he doesn't get a lot of picks, but he's a heck of a corner. So I think it's a close discussion between those guys and Charles Tillman. That's the discussion."

I wonder how much Lewis had to pay him to say that?

Oh no that means that Lewis will want a big contract now.

Lewis had a solid season, and Sherman is right ... it's overlooked because he didn't get the INTs. That's the same reason Ike never gets the respect he deserves. Ike has been one of the best cover corners in the league over the years, but he doesn't get the attention and respect because of his lack of INTs. So the perception is that he's just an average corner. Not true.
