It's really where he's best now.  He's great against the pass as far as positioning and awareness but has lost a step.  He should definitely play around the line of scrimmage more often than not, and Johnson had him there yesterday.

I did notice that he had GREAT coverage on Samuel's pick, though.  In fact, his coverage deep is what allowed Samuel to play the ball.

well when he doesnt have to do any pass coverage because rofl cant get rid of the ball, i dont see why not
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Dawkins is the best football player in the backfield on our team and you gotta get down on the guy cause he's not the guy he was 5 years ago. gotta love some philly fans

Mark Simoneau was once the defensive player of the month.

Simoneau > Weapon X.

he might be the fourth best in the defensive backfield

his demise was obviously exaggerated by people including myself after the dallas game but hes still a shell of his former self...hes going to have a few more games like the dallas game and hes going to still make some plays...where as previously he might have had a dallas type debacle like never

If they use him properly, he's good.  Can't really compare him to the cover guys though, and if you do, Samuel is probably the best overall player.

Dawkins should be around the line of scrimmage at least 75% of the time.

when youre comparing him to the defensive backfield as mussa did you most certainly can compare him to the cb's....unless his point was that hes better than quinton mikell which wouldnt be a very good point since its basically meaningless

Much.  Andre Waters is, however, only slightly better than Sean Taylor.
