My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong on this, but to me he seems to be laying some serious lumber on every tackle he makes. He only has twelve tackles on the season, but he always seems to let the ball carrier know he was there. I wasn't very high on the kid last year, but then again, I wasn't high on anyone with that horrendous defense. The kid may have a little game in him.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Agreed. The kid knows how to hit. I think we have a great nucleus of young talented very physical players on our defence at the moment.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Raw with loads of potential. He kinda fits what I think may be the new breed of DB.

He's fast enough to play CB, but can hit and tackle like a safety.

He can play CB, FS, SS, NB, and DB. If he continues to develop he could really be something special.

I really like his potential.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Im was singing his praises before the preseason..... then He had a rough preseason, just like Lewis. I think he has made strides to be bumped up into the spot behind Lewis and take Jabari's place. For me, Jabari is natural ballhawk of the crew should be in the slot.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

His original position in college was SS, but he has the cover skills of a CB

thats why i think he should be out there more, the guy is a very good player

Like you said, he lets the WR know he's there, he smacked mike wallace to the floor vs miami

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

He was primarily a CB in college that played very little safety.

The "draft experts" projected him as a safety, but he was a CB in college.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

I like him as well. He's one of the few DB's we have that explode to the tackle. He doesn't wait for the guy to come to him and try to make the tackle . He runs all out toward the guy to make the tackle. I would like to see more of him around the slot.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Ahh right my bad, they were half right though, he has the prototypical size for safety but he's as fast as a CB

Keenan and corey both show great toughness at the CB spot

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

To be completely honest, I really didn't expect much out of him. I didn't think he would even make the team this year. I've been pleasantly surprised.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

let robinson walk the kid is ready. he has always been our best tackling secondary player since the first game he played. the issue was coverage and he needs to be on the field, coaching can only take you so far. game time is what he needs now.

scratched my head at the pick and by the end of season one i like the move

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Great eye, my man. Raw, raw, raw, but he is coming on to be a good full-time starter on this defense. Just wish he could figure out not hitting QB's above the shoulder pads. Do like this kid, regardless.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

well i still say it was a clean hit. he never lowered his head. he wanted to see the QB's eyes roll to the back of head when he hit him. even with the pantzy rules it was clean

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

i wonder if white and vaccaro would make a nice tandom...then you also have bush and IAQ to throw in the mix. Im not forgeting about jenkins either- just thinking for the future.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

The same would go for Bush (not Reggie) but White has been a gem since he picked off Ryan ... now only if he could stop getting dum penalties.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Im just glad the FO didnt overreact like the fans this preseason and cut him.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

What I noticed about White...

He know how to tackle. The man can hold a clinic on hot to tackle. Where to place your head, where to wrap up. Its not about hitting as much as how you do it.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

I also would feel better with J.Greer at Safety, Free Safety to be exact. Even if they put Jabari in the slot would be better. He would match up perfectly against those smaller slot receivers.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Yeah. He can hit the QB in the head perfectly. :)

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

I've noticed that about his tackling ability, too. He doesn't dive at ankles like we've seen in the past. He does it the right way and with authority. He makes sure the ball carrier doesn't make it another inch. More often than not, he knocks them back a few.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Good stuff. Not enough of these guys around anymore.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

Can we just sign Sharper back?

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

He's growing on me fast.

Re: My Obersvation of Corey White
 

loved him from the day that the coaches signed him up.

same goes for any player the coaches select. i don't second guess pilots when they fly planes either.
