Should Douglas be starting over Jackson/Pride?

We don't know yet. Rhule said in his presser he didn't even know yet 

So your saying we better like Douglas because we might not have a choice.

Yes he looked much more consistent than Jackson ever has but what is Jackson injury?  Is it a twisted ankle or knee or leg or what? I just never heard. 

The announcers said they were retapping his ankle before he disappeared permanently from the game, so it sounds like he may have a lingering ankle thing.

Rasul Douglas absolutely should be starting. He was far and away the best CB on the field for the Panthers yesterday.

Plus tallest. Need some height vs the WR’s this week.

Definitely looked like the best corner we had on the field yesterday. 

That's kind of like saying I'm the best player on my seniors basketball team, but you're still right.

The predraft reviews of Douglas were always good and Philly’s biggest issue with him was actually keeping him on the field/healthy.

When Jackson left it looked like the D improved. Time to try him at nickel or sit him. Douglas looked solid and Pride looked solid for a rookie CB.

Manhertz, Jackson, Boston and Whitehead looked like garbage. Only one game but damn it wasn't good for them.

I know Pride got beat once but that was an excellent throw and catch. Other than that, I was very impressed with him. I thought most of the youngsters that played looked decent to good. Hard for the defensive line to flash as much facing the kind of OL unit they were but I saw some good things from them on individual plays.

Over Jackson yes, Pride not yet. Honestly think Jackson may be better suited for slot or as a backup at this point, severely overrated in my opinion. Pride will make mistakes, but if yesterday was an indicator, we may have actually got some talent outside of the first 3 rounds of the draft which is a miracle with Hurney, and hopefully indicative of Rhule for the future.

Yeah, Douglas and Pride with Donte in the slot when he returns.  Hurney might be looking for another vet right now but probably hard to find one atp.

To my eyes, Douglas looked like an actual NFL corner yesterday after only 4 days on the team. 

He will be starting soon, yes? no?

He looked good.  I’d say start him over Jackson and Lee Troy as CB2.  Troy had a solid game and should only get better.
