He's garbage in coverage. He's always a step slow and trailing behind the guy who converts the third down. There's vanishingly little evidence to suggest that he'd be a good strong safety in the NFL.

One of the common denominators here is position switches from college to pros:
Cooper---from LG to RG
Bucannon---from SS to ILB
Humphries---from LT to RT
Nkemdiche---from 43 DT to 34 DE
Reddick---from OLB to ILB
The transition from college to the NFL is difficult enough---but pairing that with a position change and that compounds the transition dramatically.

He had 384 tackles and 15 INT's at Washington State he was a monster. He should of never been made to put on weight and play LB. That's not his fault.
I think the biggest problem starts and ends with coaching, we have now many players that play out of position and that is a problem itself. Than having young guys transitioning to the nfl and at the same time to a new position ... that isn't working well. You have only little time and a transition takes time, you set yourself up to fail. And that is what this Coaching staff does.
Nkemdiche is a 43 DT that maybe can play 34DE but apparently can't or isn't teached enough or both.
Cooper is playing okay now in Dallas, why did we have to put him in a position he never played before? Why?
Humphries is the only guy I understood the move, but nonethless playing him at RT showed he wasn't a great RT and as a coach normally you should see that. Ask for a RT and or trade a LT away, no need of having 2 good LT on the team and destroy the value of one, before last year we would have got a second rounder at least for Valdeheer, maybe a late first. Now, if we get something it would be nice.
But many things go downto coaching, if the coach tells the GM (hey your players are to dumb to get the execution) and the GM trusts the coach, this is what we are gonna see, a GM trying to draft and aqcuire players that don't pan out. GM has to trust somehow his coach but we see that BA isn't often trust worthy in his assetments of the talent...

IMO luck has always been a major part of a successful draft. Honey badger injuries, not in college. Many of the others were drafted at their rated or above spots on the board. Most teams have the same kind of luck just look at the rookie QB's gone with injury. Do they come back the same. Some. If you get 2-3 starters by year two out of a draft you win. How many Dockets or Peterons have you all seen? Kiem may not be the best, but he certainly is not the worst.
