I was hoping they were considering this move. He's a project.
Played WR for 3 years at Valdosta State and was moved to CB his
last year. His measurables are off the charts: 6-3 220 4.46
40 43 1/2 vertical
I think he just doesn't have the footwork you need at this stage
in his career to compete at corner. So it appears they are
going to try him at safety.
The best that we can hope for is for him to make the 53 man as a
special teamer and some spot playing at SS. Maybe compete for a
starting spot in 2021.

I think y'all are blind. He looks like a guy that doesn't have
enough game reps... Shocker. That's what he is.

I haven't been impressed with Nagy's past performances with
regards to his drafts and free agency acquisitions,but,after
looking at this years offseason moves,I actually think this team
has improved. I haven't seen the typical reaches in FA and the
highly questionable decisions in the draft. Other than passing
on OT Joshua Jones in the 2nd round I like what I have seen.
Improvements from last year at QB,Defensive
backfield,linebacking core,TE and WR. I think he solidified OL
depth. It's definitely a wait and see proposition,but,I feel
better right now heading into the preseason than I did last year
at this time.
On another note if any of you haven't checked out undrafted OG
Dieter Eiselen's youtube video maybe you should. I have never
seen anyone maul so many defenders he was blocking. Maybe it
won't translate to the NFL,but,it's worth checking out.

Eiselen's main goal seems to be to not only block each player,
but to drive him into the ground. I so want to see him play.

I was worried about this before and this kind of amplifies it.
Maybe it isnt going to be a problem, but Gipson isnt the strong
safety type and admits it.

This is something I thought about from our draft:

I'll admit there is a difference between SS and FS, but its not
like in the old days. How many times do you see the Bears bring
the SS into the box - not very many.
Most of the time both safeties are playing center field. Gipson
has the size and has played SS a couple years in his career.
