I do know this, when Woodson was here, Roy was hardly ever out of position. He was also a game changer and all over the place. Then, Woodson goes down, and to this day, we have yet to actually replace him sufficiently. So, guess who has to not only cover up our deficiencies at CB over the last several years, but also our deficiencies at FS? ROY WILLIAMS.
He has often been out of position because he is trying to do everything. He is trying to rush the passer, stop the run, cover the TE or RB out of the backfield, stop the pass, create turnovers, lay big hits, and cover-up with the CB or FS misses their assignments in coverage.
He makes a lot of mistakes, and misplays a lot of balls, and even displays poor tackling technique at times. However, he also lays the wood on people, creates turnovers (ints and fumbles), and even scores touchdowns occasionally. He is often assisting on tackles or right there near the ball at the end of the play.
Once Henry comes back healthy, and with the improved play of Reeves, I see Roy becoming a much more dominant player. He will no longer have to worry about our suckage at CB, cause we will have 3 very good ones in Newman, Henry, and Reeves. Hamlin has been adequate at FS, and Watkins is improving with every game. So Roy will be able to do the things he did his first 3 years in the league, bring the havoc all over the field.
