I'm liking what I am seeing out of him. He is athletic, big and a seemingly solid tackler. It always seems like they have safties lacking in some area but this guy is both good in coverage from his training as a CB and big enough to play the run.

Played the SAFETY position as it was meant to played, especially the way Lovie wants it played.

He played the position better than Chris Harris and it's his second game.

Angelo might have finally got one right.

Guess it depends what you, or what Lovie wants. The guy played about as conservative as you possibly could. The INT was a great play for sure.

That being said, his conservative play might be what this "older" defense needs. I'd like to see him against a couple better throwers before making any type of analysis, but he did play pretty damn well in the TB game.

I had him as a career special teams player that Angelo typically overdrafted, so he has already exceeded my expectations.

Jason Seehorn appreciates his play.

The tackling technique is sound. I agree that the early returns are promising.

I liked what I saw. Having him and a healthy Chris Harris could really take this defense to another level.

In last weeks game,he made an excellent tackle stopping the RB from gaining a 1st down. He is also the rube a few weeks earlier who couldn't block the kicker who ended up tackling Hester preventing another TD run.
