I had that thought while watching the game.Could he be a safety? Or is he just a guy that possesses some traits but not good enough at any spot?
Playing the ball at the point of arrival is his issue.
- He does everything else reasonably.
- He appears to know what to do within the scheme.
- He comes up to play the run.
- His speed is ok for a big CB.
Developing that skill takes a lot of reps.
- The problem is that it's difficult for a developmental player to get reps in real games.
- Occasionally it happens such as OT Steele's rookie season, but generally reps are non-existent for a 5th CB.
Awuzie had a good season last year with the Bengals, but what's the point of developing a player if they're a free agent by the time they're good.
