I believe Diggs has the ability to do both. Lockdown and interceptions. He is a raw kid.
LOL exactly dudes like ghost sometimes..i get why he being missed in year like this when we need DB help but i doubt he would have made any difference, he was solid player who was overpaid to leave..you dont pay that kind of money to just a very good player..what stat line ,,,, ?
If you’d like. CB that gets picks and isolates and lock down better receivers than not sure why you would be big on the Byron train.Actually they are Not playing in a different defense when it comes to the secondary tasks and coverage scheme.
- Kris Richard wanted and implemented a jam press man coverage scheme when it comes to the CBs,..and Al Harris is emphasizing
the same press coverage manner.
- i would disagree Diggs will be infinitely better. You'd like a CB that not only gets INTs.. but also can isolate and lock down the better WRs without the
fear of getting dusted on these long vertical fly routes. He doesn't have to be schemed and protected.
But take like ex-Bucs Ronde Barber who excelled at zone and Cover 2 scheme with a off line cushion but not the kind that can go hip to hip with fly WRs.
- While Jones won't ever play to be in position to make INTs and turnovers, he flat had the physical makeup, style and pure athleticism to run toe to toe
with most speedsters in a long distance go fly routes - that's not Diggs game. So coaches need to adapt to his game, not force Trevon to adapt to their scheme
The better coaches do that ...the lesser coaches do not.
Ala ex-DB coach Joe Baker having Jones at FS,.. before Richard switched him to a man coverage CB.
Huh? Do you remember Byron’s rookie season, he was horrible. Why do you think he moved to safety. Comparing their rookie seasons, Diggs is light years ahead of Byron. If you pay attention to the games Diggs is covering every teams number 1 receiver. Byron was getting burned by 3rd receivers in 2015.
Lol safety help? With the trash we have at safety ? And learning a new defense to boot? I needed a good laugh this morning quick thanks!Not every one ..every player has the same make up. and skill set .
Some guys play faster on the playing field than their suggested 40 time ..
some guys are just not fast period but they compensate and make up for it in other areas.
Ala ex- Bucs Ronder Barber or our own Everson Walls.
Some guys are meant for bump run press coverage and some just play better off the line with a cushion between them and WRs.
We dunno yet what kinda player will eventually be once he is up to par in techniques, and better knowing and playing and competing against
NFL WRs in a competitive game.
i already don't like rookie Diggs constantly be placed on an island so much vs these WRs on constant basis .. without zero safety
help over the top, .never the freaking safety help !! ..
Opposing NFL teams are very well on to this - and taking plenty well advantage of the rookie.
.but who knows what these damn DB coaches and DC is trying to do.
We will see about Byron this weekend when he goes up against Kyler Murray and Hopkins.
Did you Watch Zach Wilson last night? What do you think?
I gotta give you credit because you have been saying it for a couple of years about paying Dak. I am a Dak fan but you make a good point about giving him more money then Rodgers and Russ. That would not be smart for our franchise. If the Cowboys are fortunate enough to draft in the top 5 they need to consider these quarterbacks.
We totally were watching a different Byron. I remember Cowboys break and talking Cowboys was openly saying the team should cut Byron after year three. Eyebrows were raised when the Cowboys picked up his 5th year option. Byron had a great year 2018 but so did LVE and Jaylon. Don’t get me wrong Byron is good player and I happy he got paid. But let’s not act like if he was on the team now we would be better then 2-6.
Byron also didn’t start at CB so not really a fair assessment
neither deserved the money they got..you happy..
You just made my point. Don’t judge these guys with a small sample size. I bet Diggs if he remains healthy will make more money then Byron when his contract is up.
