10yrs ago a corner for the niners. Great cover guy got abused because he was short. Playedfor the redskins too.
I think you mean Walt Harris? Played for us 5-7 years ago. Was 5'11".
Could have also been Tyrone Drakeford. He was with us 10+ years ago. Spent one year with WAS.
That was closer to 5 and he didn't get abused...went to the pro bowl for us. Trying to think back to corners that stunk it up in 03 and all I can think of is Mike Rumph.

Edit...this is in response to Walt obviously.

That's a good possibility, didn't remember him with the Skins, but one year is easy to miss. Plus I was in college then....some memory retention from that time is , ahem poor.

Mike Rumph is of normal height

The dynamic duo of Webster-Plummer didn't play for WSH so it would have to be Walt Harris, Drakeford didn't play for them 10 years ago

Unless the poster has a bad memory Walt was a very good corner for us.....

Good call! That might be it. He was REALLY short...like 5'7". Completely forgot about him. I thought he was really good with the Chiefs but sucked for us. Spent one year in Washington.
