It's early still so you're right- it isn't necessarily a bad thing. I just worry a little bit that Marcus Williams may be our only safety who does well in zone and he's a rookie who will make mistakes.

You're right, it's early; and even Williams has struggled in Zone as well taking pore vectors in his pursuit angles...

It's like Klein said, a poor practice tape is a good learning tape; and they're doing this early so they have time to remedy...

I'm cautious about Crawley, he did the exact same thing last training camp but couldn't make the plays in games where it truly counted.

We have to see who he is making the plays against, right? Like making star studded plays against 2nd and 3 string qb and receivers is not as impressive as against the first string guys

I do like Moore and Banjo. Tough players for the secondary. Our secondary has played like crap a few years, hurt or not, still like crap, no depth to speak of, hopefully this changes.
