There's an article about him on Yahoo. He's apparently already on the Packers practice squad. He was compared to Sam Shields - 4.36 speed, athletic but raw. They say Joe Whitt has been working with him, and he may be an alternative to Tramon.

He's the slot CB on most of the plays #4. Nothing too exciting Carr hardly ever throws at him. He looks really skinny. Don't think he's close to Goodson.

Shees, the guy is a veritable toothpick.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Alshon Jeffery... lol, it doesn't seem like he's done much against us with Shields covering him. Maybe Shields magaically grew 2 inches when we played Chicago since that's apparently what it takes.

Dez Bryant is 6'2". Shields is 5'11". If Shields is 3 inches taller, maybe Bryant doesn't make the catch that wasn't.

Sherman is 6'3". Revis is 5'11". Good CB's can come in any size. But if all other things are equal, I would prefer taller.

All things are never created equal. Give me better, if that's of the 5'10" variety or the 6'4" I do not really care.
