He was touted as a Tony Gonzalez type safety--a guy capable of redefining the position and changing gameplans. The truth is that he's been closer to Kellen Winslow II, incredibly productive in college and loved by scouts but underwhelming in the pros, than he has been Gonzalez--a generational player who lived up to the hype.
