He doesn't need to be stuck playing man coverage. He simply isn't that good at it to be doing it on nearly 2/3 snaps per series.

He was a top five pick. As a safety.

He should be destroying guys in man coverage, especially with his athletic ability.

Right now, it looks like his college numbers were the effect of playing rogue in Monte Kiffin's Cover 2 versus his actual football instincts/capabilities.

He should have been Paul Krause. Right now, he's a really, really small Mike linebacker. That's a busted pick in my book and another shit bag Pioli first round pick.

He's the defensive equivilent of Baldwin. Supreme athletic gifts and just can't play the game (at least to the level his draft pick should dictate).

That's not fair. Go back and watch the Ravens playoff game. Berry was absolutely awesome in coverage that day.

The guy's knee isn't right.

He definitely needs another year for evaluation.

ACL's are still generally a 2 year injury. You get back on the field in anywhere from 6-12 months, but it takes longer to really get your legs all the way back under you.

Charles is just a force of nature.

Even with him you've seen him get stronger and more confident during the year.

The only thing the D seemed to do right was play the run, richardson and hardesty did next to nothing most of the day.

But i guess that and a nickel will get me a hot cup of jack squat.

I definitely think he needs one more year due to the ACL injury. If he still can't perform, then he's a bust IMO. I'd still like to see us upgrade the position with 2 new safety additions (unless Hartman shows he can be productive).
