On the NBC pregame show, Rodney Harrison called Reshead Jones "the best Safety in the league". I hate that dude, but he clearly understands Safety play.

Reshad Jones
428 tackles
6.5 sacks
12 interceptions
29 passes defended
Kam Chancellor
430 tackles
2 sacks
9 interceptions
31 passes defended
These two actually have pretty much the same contract too. Their production is almost exactly the same. The only difference is Jones does it without another ALL-Pro lined up at FSTin Indian, KeyFin, PhinFan1968 and 2 others like this. -

Kam Chancellor: 4 yr(s) / $28,002,008, $5 million dollar signing bonus
Reshad Jones does have Kam beat on his guaranteed money: $15 million guaranteed versus $7,825,000 guaranteed.
Kam has 9 FF, Reshad has 3Tin Indian, gunn34 and dolfan32323 like this. -
Harrison is an assclown but I agree with him. Jones is playing at an elite level.

I don't think it is even close.
If you put Reshad Jones in a cover-3 heavy scheme that lets him play in the box 80% of snaps with arguably the best cover corner and safety in the league and you're getting maybe Troy Polamalu level work, rather than just a 4th linebacker you get with Chancellor.
If you put Chancellor in the strong safety position in a lot of defenses around the league, you've got issues. -
Reshad Jones is Mr. Consistency. He even played well under Coach Queasy. Pro Bowl year most likely if the defense keeps these performances coming.
