Sniper1154

I remember when he was drafted people were saying he was performing admirably and Oklahoma and would be one of the third-round steals.

due to McGowan's injury there have been reports the Bears might sign him and he should fit in well with the Cover 2 scheme he played under Edwards in New York and his relations to Tommie Harris and Dusty.

Anyone know any more about him?

well, what can he offer the Bears?

is he solid in run support or better at defending the pass?

what are his glaring weaknesses?

I'll start off with his weaknesses, and that is his speed. He is not very fast or quick. That is why he has yet to start consistently in the NFL. I have felt since he was drafted that, if he was to make it in the NFL, that it would be as a safety.

He is decent in run support, but is probably the best cover corner we have had here at OU in the last 10 years.

As for the Bears, you have a rookie safety, and a lack of depth in the secondary. I think this is a great fit with the defensive scheme and his play style. I am not saying he will start, but I think he can make a big contribution to the team.

The Bucs signed him and released him the same week, and we are hurting pretty badly right now in the secondary. That should tell you everything about where he is right now.

I stand corrected

But really, Tre is right, he hasn't been the same since the Jets tried to trade him, then it was voided with Suggs' failed physical. I think it's more mental than physical..
