Antonio Cromartie had a rough 2008. The Cro played no where close to the 10 interception, All-Pro cornerback that he displayed in 2007. He was picked apart and torched on numerous occasions, performing like former sub par corners from Chargers past. And now as the Bolts entertain the idea of bringing back Drayton Florence, there is a hot rumor that Cromartie maybe on the trading block.
Why not? Cro played like crap last year due to a fractured hip. But talking about a new contract, breaking the interception record, and conversing with his mentor Deion Sanders, didn't help him one bit. Cro is a talented corner but had too many mental breakdowns. Maybe AJ Smith just had enough and targeted Cro as one of the players with "their careers on the line".
