I was just talking to a Bucs friend who was realy, REALLY high on him. I asked him what I'll ask you: how TF did he fall like that? So basically he's a safety who can play CB as well?
I hope he can play S/T because unless he shows OUT in training camp and in every preseason game, I don't think he gets THAT many snaps. Also, I wonder what this means for DeShon because it's a shame that he can't stay healthy.
i dont think it means anything for deshon per se - stone knows he's got to win a place on the roster with special teams
he's definitely not a corner and part of the reason he fell will be because of athleticism that will have had him off a lot of boards just because he missed the athletic thresholds
deshon was one of our best special teams players last year before he got injured and was dynamic in the secondary when he was playing on defence - the injuries might ultimately screw over his career but on a performance-basis he will make the team
but i dont see why we couldnt enter 2020 with Marlon, Marcus Peters, Jimmy, Tavon, Earl, Chuck, Levine, elliott, stone and then 2 more CBs (probably marshall and averett but maybe jordan richards) - i dont see why we couldnt have 11 DBs on the roster - we ended last year with 11 dbs (technically 5 safeties) but at least 2-3 of those dbs were basically special teams specialists and another 2-3 were expected to be stalwarts of that unit
i fully expect elliott to make the team on special teams prowess alone
