IFWT_Dee Milliner

Come on now guys, this is getting super old!  I get having confidence in yourself but just about every cornerback in the league is publicly claiming to be the best.  Initially the argument was between Richard Sherman and Darrelle Revis, then it spread to Antonio Cromartie, Patrick Peterson, and now Dee Milliner of the New York Jets.

The words spill out of Dee Milliner’s mouth without a trace of arrogance, a bold proclamation that he’s proud to tell you.

“The best corner in the league? Me,” Milliner told the Daily News after practice on Saturday. “I ain’t gonna say that somebody else is better than me.”

Darrelle Revis, Richard Sherman and Patrick Peterson may be considered the best cornerbacks in the game today, but Milliner sees it differently.

“I’m not going to say somebody that plays the same position is better than me,” Milliner said. “Don’t care if they’ve been in the league 10 years and I’ve been here five months. That’s how it’s going to go. I’m the best. I’m not going to say that another man that plays the same position… and say he’s better than me? I can’t do that.”

Milliner, the No. 9 pick in the 2013 draft, endured three benchings before a strong finish earned him Defensive Rookie of the Month honors in December.
