Nick was a fine player at FSU, and you already know that he's got "speed" if he played and started for the FSU defense.. I was really impress by his plays, he's gonna make mistakes for sure, but who doesnt...
The last two games, I just hope its all about the young guys, or the future players of this team.. I don't care to see Brandon Lloyd's acrobatic catches... of Boldin physical plays.. even Crabb's great hands... I've seen them all year long.. dont need to see them anymore, I just wanna see the future of the team..
agreed, I want to see some other guys get some playing time.
Like Patton, Ellington, Moody, Lemonier, Tank, Farrel... etc
Yeah, I'd like to see him get more PT...he's quicker than Wilhoite, although overall, I think MW has acquitted himself pretty well. Opposing teams really exploited the middle of the field with Willis and Bowman gone. That won't happen next year. The other plus is both Borland & Wilhoite got mad PT this year, so will be all the better for it next season.

Absolutely!
These guys won't develop quickly riding the pine.
The more they get on the field the better.
Let them all play in our last games as much as possible.
I could care less if we win these last games.
It will give us a little better idea going into the draft.

This is the guy who has to step up in year 3. Him and Bowman would be a good pair if he can take the next step this year.
yup. hopefully he bulked up during this offseason, because he got abused at times by guards and even RBs.

Sorry, this dude sucks. Completely week in run support.
Run support is the easiest thing you can teach a ILB. I'm way more worried about a LB if he's slow and can't keep up in pass coverage or rush the QB when called upon.
