What The Heck Happened To-Jimmy Moreland??

Yes I know he's a rookie,but in preseason he looked like a shoo-in at corner,he got hurt but is healthy now and can't break into the lineup?is there an explanation because maybe I'm missing something here!

I thought I saw him playing a lot of corner when Dunbar got hurt?

28 snaps vs Vikings. 35 vs the 9ers.

Yep,but he didn't play well!

A 7th round rookie corner not playing well? Color me surprised.

There seems to be this gap between realistic expectations and reality for this fanbase, Jimmy Moreland is the latest example.

I’m more interested in “what happened to Preston Smith”?

Preston Smith went to Green Bay, got a competent coordinator and is now flourishing as a 2nd round draft pick should.

The regular season started.

Hopefully Moreland can turn into a better player than Moreau. That dude can't play.

Exactly. I look at the young talent we have on defense and think "what if we got a competent D Coordinator here?"

Sweat, Payne, Allen, Matty I, Cole Holcomb, SD Hamilton, Monte, Apke, Collins, Moreland, Dunbar....I seriously have seen flashes and steady performers on the defense. The right guy could mold the unit into a great defense IMO. I really think that...

Here, here.

I also wonder how much this is a lack of capability with positional coaching. I can't help wondering how much dysfunction Manusky is engendering down the management chain.
