Players we could've had instead of Kyle Wilson: Rob Gronkowski Zane Beadles Daryl Washington NaVorro Bowman Jimmy Graham Geno Atkins Kam Chancellor (all pro-bowlers) (leaving out Aaron Hernandez here). Enough to make you sick. It's been 3 years. If he can't turn his head around by now, time to let him go & give another guy a chance to step up. After this season, I expect he isn't on the team. Thankfully.
Guy has never ever been able to turn his head and locate the ball...constantly plays the man not the ball....basically he is fucking useless..... Still love him for the way he celebrates an overthrown ball like he made the play.... Waste of a pick...again!
I was at the game, and so, the WR/CB positions were matchups I was able to see very well. Here's my general take on Wilson from tonight: He's solid when it comes to covering his man -- just sticking with the WR in the route. BUT, for the life of him, he cannot cover AND turn his head around as the ball is being delivered. This is a major problem, at this point in his career, and I'm wondering if he'll ever be able to grasp that technique. Having said that, people on here have floated around the idea of trying him at Safety. Maybe that would suit him best, since his head wouldn't be turned away from the Qb as much as it is when he's covering a WR downfield? Or maybe he is strictly a Nickle cover-guy because the slot WRs don't go downfield as much? I don't know. But this kid needs to start turning his fucking head around.
First point, at Boise I can't remember him playing this way, he was a pretty useful and multi faceted player, so this for me has only started since turning pro. Maybe the speed of the game has changed the way he plays. Secondly, I don NOT want him anywhere near safety. Although he's now learnt how to tackle he will often have to cover TEs and HBs, I'd prefer to pass on that 'experiment'.
If he doesn't project as a skilled Safety, then it's not a good idea to experiment there. I just wish he would turn his freakin head around.
someone buy Wilson a nice pillow. His neck needs to be relaxed when he sleeps to prevent his neck from stiffening up.
(Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit angry And I know I've got to get out and cry (Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit terrified But then I see the look in your eyes (Turn Around, bright eyes) Every now and then I fall apart Turn around, bright eyes Every now and then I fall apart And I need you now tonight And I need you more than ever And if you only hold me tight We'll be holding on forever
My only question with Wilson is, why doesn't he EVER TURN AROUND when the ball is in the air? My God, did He learn anything from Revis while he was here?
