Hayward has been great in the slot but I don't think that's where he belongs, as to say he can't be as successful in other positions.  He's a special type of player with the quick twitch and excellent vision of the field/play.  I truly see Hayward taking the leap to being the best CB in a stable of pretty damn good CBs overall.  

I like Hayward but he strikes me as the ideal ideal slot guy: He lacks great size and straight-line speed but he's instinctive, smart and has a good feel for playing in where it gets messy. House seems to me more of the outside type where he's bigger, can jam or stand up in the outside zone where the routes may not be as complex but the taller and faster receivers tend to roam.

I agree.

I agree.

 

  

 

 

The new site has included many transformations

It's nice to have a stable of young DBs to choose from. The depth always serves. But they do need a playmaker to emerge- a guy who forces fumbles, makes teams go the other way... I don't think House is that guy, though he's going to be solid. I don't know about Hayward, despite his solid rookie campaign. I think it has to be Shields. 2011 was the slump, 2012 the rebound... Now take off, like Collins did.

   House certainly sounds very confident and that is a good thing.  In the fall of 2011, I spoke with a college teammate  of House who had just returned from visiting him in GB.   House (who was a riding the pine at the time and ) and he told me  that DH was in the process of reworking his body and that he was going to be a beast in 2012.  This is the kind of thing when I see it in print I tell myself yes and he'll need that body driving a truck because pine sitters typically are doing that in a year os so. in August when I saw him he looked like a safety he was so thick and rocked up.  

  So if DH says he is going to knock our eyeball outs I am thinking he is going to have very good season

I spent a lot of the game covering Michael Crabtree, and I was ready for that from watching the film of him during the week. He’s a big guy, and the way I looked at it, you kind of have to play his game. When I watched tape of Richard Sherman covering him the last few years, I saw that you have to get up in Crabtree’s face and be physical.

 

If Tramon doesn't renegotiate/take a pay cut, Shields and House are the CBs with Hayward in the slot.
