@rossihunter2 i know you’re a big DeShon guy, so how well do you think he played this season? Do you think he played well enough to remain our starter, or should we look elsewhere?
I think he's played well enough to be our starter but not amazing enough that he couldn't be usurped by a high quality addition
that being said he might have had his best game yet against the bills from what ive seen - one of my biggest criticisms of him especially as a deep cover guy is that he's hesitant to trigger and it often makes him seem late or slow but when he backs his reads he's got tons of range
there was one spectacular play he made in coverage early against the bills where he started at the LoS between the Edge and Slot on the far side and at the snap absolutely screams downfield to bracket diggs over the top on a go route lined up outside with Marcus Peters on the near side
so he came from the LoS and from the opposite side of the field to get over the top to completely nullify that play
he's got that kind of upside
and we all know what he can do in the running game with the way he comes downhill like a rocket
and i love the way he holds himself and how hyped and swaggery he gets
I think we need to add another safety anyway so that we can get into more 3 safety dime packages again - even if we did add a starting level safety, deshon's going to be a big part of this defence in 2021 - the real question for me is what we do about him after 2021 given he'll be a free agent after this upcoming season
