    So, he had surgery to repair a torn Lisfranc ligament in his left foot. That doesn’t sound good, but I’m not a doctor.

    He did test well at proday, so I’m a little more comfortable

    Great! He fits a culture of disciplined, smart, dependable, leadership, winning and coachable character. Most importantly he is ultra talented at his position.

    My question is will Lovie's defense cater towards his strengths or will Stingley try to fit Lovie's system. I believe Lovie's D typically is zone heavy, is Stingley a great zone corner if that's the case?

    Potential. He dominated high school players when he was in eighth grade, he's been graded a first round picks since he was 17, came in to lsu as a true freshman and was an absolute stud. My issue is that he's been injured a lot, especially the lisfranc injury has me worried. But if he can stay healthy, this guy could be something special

    Hard to complain about grabbing a *potential* star CB. Did like Sauce more but fine overall.

    So a dude that’s oft injured and can’t tackle in a cover 2 system.

    I think he’ll be a good player…once he hits free agency and goes somewhere he can use his cover skills.
