Never said he's terrible, but IMO, not nearly as good as many think he is. Obviously the Bombers felt the same way as it looks like he was not a priority re-signing on their part.
I agree that his interceptions skew perceptions of Heath. Bombers had one of the most porous pass defences in the league, although many contributed to that problem. He reminds of Byron Parker who set a record for most interceptions returned for TDs, but was not a great cover guy.
