Wilson ain't starting over Heath, right now, let's get that part right. Richard is doing what good coaches should expose young players to the big boy huddle and see if he can handle himself. Iloka to some reps too... signaling coach is evaluating these guys.

Frazier is on a one year deal, and he's just not a playmaker in coverage.
also there's question if he can match up in isolation coverage.
He's a one track pony - he stands out best in special teams where if healthy he is one of the better SP coverage guys in the NFL.

I think we are in trouble if he has to sub for an injured starter but because special teams is being so valued, I think he still could have a shot at being on this roster because
of his special teams work.
I think we keep four safeties and it could more come down to Wilson vs Thompson.

1 Xavier Woods
2 Jeff Heath
3 Kevon Frazier
4 Donovan Wilson

Oh Heath will start.

But let's get this part right........... Heath isn't good enough to not have his job taken at some point in the future. The bar for Wilson to clear to beat out Heath isn't that high.

Isn't Frazier a core special teamer? I think Iloka is about to become the victim of a number crunch at safety unless they keep him over Heath.
Yes - Iloka was cut the second that they drafted Wilson, imo, and he was never an option or in the conversation as a Heath replacement as starter.

The number crunch cut, I think, is Thompson, because I doubt they go with more than 4 safeties (Woods, Heath, Frazier, Wilson)

What's it going to be then, eh?

You mean when someone is out due to injury, they go down the depth chart to find his replacement at least in the immediate future? Next thing you're gonna tell is paying taxes is mandatory.
