From what I remember he did pretty well. I know for a fact he had a gorgeous tackle, the form was great.

Yeah open field tackles, where it's just you one-on-one with the ball carrier is more difficult that it looks. Know the exact play you are talking about and it was a great tackle.

So could he potentially be an answer to our CB depth? If Butler, Gamble, the Captain, and possibly Hogan can lock it down then we may not have to worry about it during the offseason. Does this seem like it could be a legitimate possibility?

Also, after hearing a lot about Kendric Burney, has he played at all. If so, how has he looked?

Thanks for the answers. Points coming.

I am very interested to see what Hogan can do when he gets healthy.

I want to see him some in the 2nd half of the season. I don't expect a whole lot from him this season (no offseason, OTA, TC, etc). But, I want him to get some reps in preparation for next season.

After a few games this season I really think our CB situation is looking really good. Captain isn't getting abused by tall receivers (making big plays on the ball with his leaping ability). Gamble is better than ever being allowed to cover one on one and not in a soft zone. Butler looks promising. We have yet to see what Hogan can do. Burney impresses in practice, Stanford could develop nicely too.

Safety depth seems to be our only problem in the secondary. Pugh lets up too many big plays and occasionally takes some really bad angles on ball carriers.

That being said I think the only thing our defense will need next year is a bonafide DT. If we got a Suh or Dareus (or a healthy in shape Kris Jenkins) our defense could really be something special.

      I knew very little about this player before we drafted him. When I read scouting reports about him I understood the pick and thought it made sense as a late round receiver with speed and special teams ability but after watching him more closely and now adding his interviews into the equation I'm actually really excited about him. I know it's just RMC but I noticed him running his routes with this extra step that really stood out to me during the general video posted earlier without realizing who it was doing that.  His speed in his first cut is just on another level and it's visible. When I saw it I was **** whoa, who was that?! Then I saw Horn JR. and my first thought was oh it's him. I think it's very possible that he was under appreciated going into the draft due to his height and stats because he played at Colorado where the attention was on 2 other players but I think this dude's ceiling is way higher than most think it is. Especially after watching his interview. He looks hungry. I may have found my fav rook for this year's pre-season. I like pulling for underdogs anyway and as someone who played on the small side myself it just gives me more reason to cheer for him. The competition at WR looks like it's going to be fierce this season. I honestly can remember any preseason where I looked at out wr group and got past 3 players who I thought were interesting but this season I'm interested in at least 5 who have my attention going into the season.

      Wilson should be getting called for at least 3 penalties a night even in the post season. How does he not lead the NHL in PM???
