Have you ever watched Moss or Owens try to make a tackle on an INT, it's pathetic. Their long bodies can't go low. Given that a corner must also tackle RB's on a regular basis it just doesn't make sense.
And the others were correct, their legs are too long to just swivel those hips and turn with a receiver. The body just doesn't work for the position.
Maybe someday a player will prove us all wrong and have the ability and the height...but they'll probably make him a WR so it won't matter
