I think with Dee (Milliner), when I went back, I watched that tape, he\u2019s a lot closer than I think given credit for. He\u2019s close to being that player that we want. I will say this, by the time the season\u2019s over, I think he will be the best rookie corner and playing better than any rookie corner in this year\u2019s draft. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any doubt. We anticipate that. He was the number one cornerback selected, but that\u2019s how we feel about him. I think he\u2019s close. I really do.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Ryan was asked why he still has confidence in Milliner&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I just see him getting better. I do. And I know how bad he wants it. All facets, schematically, he\u2019s not making the mental errors, so I think that\u2019s a big thing. And just his technique, I see his technique coming. Now he just needs to have some success tied along with it, and I think that\u2019s what\u2019s missing, get an interception or two and I think he\u2019s going to be good. He\u2019s a smart young man. He wants it and I think he\u2019ll get there.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dee Milliner faces a tough challenge against Brees and he expects to be targeted.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Yes, always. I\u2019ve put on film that plays get over me here and there. He watches film. He\u2019s one of the great quarterbacks in today\u2019s game. He\u2019s going to be out there and of course I\u2019m the new kid out there so he\u2019s going to look to attack me on things.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>See what other NY Jets fans are saying in our <a href=\"http:\/\/forums.jetnation.com\/topic\/113095-milliner-will-start-vs-saints\/\">New York Jets message board<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rex Ryan is standing behind 1st round draft pick Dee Milliner.\u00a0 After Milliner had a rough outing against the Bengals, Rex told the media today that the rookie cornerback would start Sunday against Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints.
