Should we bench Worley?

[Crazydounut]

The past few weeks Daryl Worley has been picked on a lot by opposing QB's. He has played 7, 8, 9. Hell, even 10+ yards off the line-of-scrimmage on most plays. Giving up 8-12 yard plays consistently when he is attacked. Then when he plays further up he gets burned by one of the slower (still talented) receivers in the game and Jeffrey. Then when he is in good coverage, he either gets a PI or doesn't make the play. He does have great tackling talent and is big enough to play safety (probably a more natural position for him.) Meaning we move a faster, more talented corner and Seymour to the #2 CB role. While at the same time having Worley be prepped for the starting safety position next season behind veteran Mike Adams. Thoughts?

He's already been benched twice

It’s just not clicking for him unfortunately. He looks lost on the field and is always a step behind.

But guys, he makes tackles!!

To add to him lacking the instincts, him not recovering that muffed punt was terrible. His reaction was so delayed. It’s like he didn’t comprehend that the ball was on the ground.

Exactly--looked like he froze.

Potential game changer--although Shula probably would have fuged up.

They kind of backed themselves into a corner on this one.  Worley was 20 when he was drafted, its going to take some time for him to develop, but because the position was completely rebuilt in one off season, they are forced to play him and he has to learn on the fly.

The problem is that Seymour has looked just as bad. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. 

[Finest-Panthers]

Yes

All they have to do is look for Worley or Adams, Touchdown
