How much does this guy have left in the tank? I may be wrong on him but isnt he more of a physical run stopper than a free safety?

Redsz said:Shazor needs to get on the field though. I have no idea if he is healed up as he missed the majority of OTA's.
However, the guy is a FREAK. 6-4, 231 and runs a 4.44 (I think).
If Shazor and Wilson both get on the field, that would have to be one of the most physically imposing saftey tandems in the NFL.
4.44 in the 40-yard dash … 340-pound bench press … 33-inch vertical jump.

Scouts said:Is athletic for his size but has marginal speed and is limited in coverage. The more ground he is responsible for the less reliable he becomes. His hips are a bit stiff and he is long-legged. He struggles to match up man-to-man versus quicker RB's and slot WR's. Gets turned around too easily and loses too much in transition when trying to recover. Takes too long to build top-end speed. Has improved with more experience but still below average in terms of his overall recognition skills. He reads the run quickly and does a very good job of finding the football and getting too it. The problem, however, is that he can be over-aggressive and will get caught out of position. He bites too often on the play-fake and still takes too many false steps. His pursuit angles are inconsistent and he still will miss too many open field tackles. If he's forced to change directions or stop-and-start, he takes too much time in transition to catch-up after making a mistake. Does have a tendency to seek out the big hit rather than playing the ball at times, but not as frequently as many other of his kind in this class.
