NJ Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Just saw Rex on NFL network and when questioned about Milliner almost the first thing out of his mouth was how he'd have to compete with Wilson and the midget (no offense meant to Little People) I was hoping without saying there would be, or is, a plan to look at him as a safety. It was a shame to waste a first rounder on this slug as a corner but in a safety role he would be coming in on the ball more often than not and he's a half decent tackler. His finger wagging bs persona is a big negative in my book, but it would be really nice to salvage something more than a poor dime back from this guy. What do y'all think?

JayKwaz Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I said this months ago in here, he is great when everything is in front of him, solid against the run. Horrible when his back is turned to the ball. His best position to me ua safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Not sure he has the size or body type to hold-up as a safety, but I think he'll be fine going back to his nickel role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know Joe - he's only 5-10 but the guy is absolutely chiseled and 190. 25 reps as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Wilson is a decent nickel CB. If Milliner pans out as an opening day starter, Wilson will be fine. I get the idea that he's better with the QB in front of him, and I think that's part of why he works better as a nickel back, covering a lot of shorter field routes. And yeah, I completely hate the finger waving, too. Honestly? I'd welcome back Kerry Rhodes, husband and all. <ducks!> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SayNoToDMC Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Jesus He should throw his hype guy a bone then, the poor guy has resorted to Tai Chi as a solution for his throwing motion. Also does he know what Kerry Rhodes is doing down in Arizona? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cro has toughened up but the idea of him and Rhodes in the same secondary was unfathomable at the time. We traded for Cro right after the postseason he put us in the AFC championship game with his faggy "tackling", which coincidentally was the last time Shonn Greene looked like a good RB http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=222043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
