The story makes it sound as though Owens should have been a 1st round pick…lol.  But seriously, it just talks about his leadership at Yale and then for a short time at UNH.  The kid’s obviously smart, and his former coaches think he “will make any team better.”

The Buckeyes really took off defensively when they moved him to free safety part time. Ransom was more of an in the box defender, which forced downs to play deep middle. When Ransom went down, they played Hancock deep middle and moved Downs closer to the LOS where he could make more plays. He acquitted himself nicely. They kept doing it after Ransom came back and he played a lot of safety snaps in the playoffs.

 

That said...he is more of a pass defender, IMO. More Micah, less Poyer or even Johnson.

Perfect! Hopefully Bishop plays the poyer role and Hancock the Hyde. Rapp can come in when we need to put someone on IR and Hamlin can give pep talks to the PR department

Ha, I couldn't tell if you meant "if the Bills have to put someone on IR, he can come in" or "if the Bills WANT to put someone on IR, he can come in and injure them."
