I watched Sunseri against Texas A&M and Virginia Tech again this morning. As far as the A&M goes, you gotta look at what he was being asked to do. His primary responsibility in that game is spying on Manziel. He is looking for him to run on 75% of the plays. He missed one tackle because he took a bad angle in that game against the running back. However, that is very rare for him. He is good against the run. I'm not sure where you get that.

The Virginia Tech game is representative of what you will get from him each week. He was really good against the run, really good on special teams, he excels at man coverage, and plays both safety spots. He is really a good fundamental tackler. He is also a field general out there and excels at reading offenses and positioning teammates. Every time Dorsey talks about Kendrick Lewis, that is what he raves about. There is a good chance we will draft Sunseri imo.

Direckshun, no offense but I think you may have focused in a little too much on the A&M game and missed what Saban was asking him to do for most of that game. I encourage you to watch the Virginia Tech game again.

I watched the Cockrell tape again this morning to. You are right about his run defense. He is not strong in this area. I think I got to caught up in coverage skills. However, I do think he can transition to man and would make a good nickel. The problem is that it's obvious he is not going to be very good on special teams and we will need a CB who can do that. I doubt they take on a project corner that can't play special teams.
