he has zero confidence and zero instincts for the position. their is a reason he was a 7th round pick. I think he was more of a track start than football player. A guy like that you initially draft and put on special teams because you know he can prevent long kickoff and punt returns with his ability to walk a player down that has broken into the clear. And perhaps he can become a punt or kick returner with his speed. You get lucky if they develop into a 2nd or 3rd CB. But he never did either with Parcells...and once we cut Glenn we had to roll with Reeves. But Wade should have known by mid-season that Reeves was not working out and teams would find him. The more they found him the more his confidence waned. I have said it in several threads, the things that plagued this team all year are the things that eventually sunk this team. The only adjustment they made in this game was starting Barber over Jones. But poor special teams coverage, penalties, poor tackling and Jacques Reeves were issues in wins and losses this year...and they were issues against the Giants.
