This guy is a special athlete for his size and length. Idk if it'll translate to his play, I think he sorta under performed in college relative to his expectations coming out of HS.

if he can get coached up… he could be a savage. I hope he really loves the game and has an incredible work ethic. So much potential, just have to hope he blooms.

Would love it if he was the next Sherm. That'll be hard with the safeties we currently have. Lll I'm curious how this guy would be at FS.

I can see this, Sherman had attitude to match his game though!

Sherman was going to be great, and he was going to let everyone know it LOL.

Regular season, actually. Preseason all stars don't even mean much
I don't think hes going to do well, but I'll be here to eat crow if he makes me eat it.

I was thinking more safety vs corner etc. but odds are we won't see much.

Same.

From what I've seen he's too grabby when he's trying to guard a WR.

That would be sick. Sherman's greatness was largely between the ears, so this kid will have to be a tall genius to come anywhere close to Sherm. Let's hope he has it!

Well Raheem had some highly ranked pass defenses in the past. I'm hoping he can coach up Ephesians Prysock to be a probowler or better. That will go a long way to making the DB squad better than road kill.

I don't think Harbs and Sherman were boys.

From what I recall it sounds like harbaugh didn't do Sherman any favors during the draft process, I get why Sherm dislikes him
