I expected that he would take the slot corner job from Williams sooner rather than later. I see him as the long term guy there.

I watched him a lot in college. I leave the scouting reports to others, but I always loved the kid's attitude. He epitomizes "all gas no brakes".

I had Williams as a shock trade/cut candidate if this kid balled out in the pre season. This could help that happen, loving the youth movement from our FO, it's refreshing

I'd do the trade/cut thing and give the slot to DJ.

Ward as the only depth at nickle? No thanks

No way...Williams has been a steady CB for SF and got better as the season went on. Dude is on the books for 3 more yrs avg $2.7 million in cap space per. IMO that's great value for his play.

I like DJ a ton but Williams is a solid starter for at least this yr (dude is only 26). You can never have enough DBs.

We need to keep Williams around for depth.

I love that he is getting reps at FS as well and looking good there as well. He will be a very good nickel corner /depth guy for years to come.

I would keep him around. He's not to expensive and a real solid nickel corner.

Yeah, let's eliminate our depth.

It's not like we ever have injuries...

Hope he has a good game. We need someone to step up since Sherm and Williams are down.
