I really liked his play today.

For the amount of times they threw the ball in his direction, he was pretty good on the coverage. He looked like a vet, IMO.

We weren't watching the same game.

I thought he was solid until he gave up some long catches in the 4th quarter.

Huh? Did I miss something? I had three games going at once. Of all the plays I saw, he was solid. Penalty aside has was right there.

He was better than last week. I wouldn't say he played like a veteran.

He's a talented guy, very happy with this pick now.

He did good for a rookie but still needs some polishing. The kid does have great potential though, I like him. Way better DB pick than McKelvin was.

I thought he got away with some holding at times, but he definitely seemed more physical and aggressive this week, and he also made some nice plays helping out to stop the run.

Thrown at 11 times, gave up 4 recs for i beleive 46 yards...pretty good.

He also shut down thay fade in the endzone, leading to the hillis fumble the nexy play.

Aaron Williams had a dog of a day.

I figured his learning curve would be shorter, this being year two and all.

It's a young group in the secondary. They're gonna take some collective lumps.

Always liked Williams but projected him as a safety coming out. I'm surprised he lost that jump ball to Bowe though, those are the plays he usually excels at.

I feel like Williams will be fine in the long run.

I just expected a quicker path to greatness for him. Our secondary is young, our pass rush is still dubious at best, so maybe it's naive to expect a huge leap of talent from year 1 to year 2 from Williams.

Jabari Greer was projected to be a safety in the NFL too but after a rough couple of years, he became an elite CB despite his height and size.

I think Williams is an even better prospect, so I'm happy with him at CB.

Justin Rogers was pretty good too. I mean McKelvin was torched all day long last week, so coming into this game the Chiefs knew that was a pretty big weakness. Yet Rogers held McCluster/Breston in check and you rarely heard his name called, would say that's a positive.

I thought Gilmore played very well for the most part yesterday. Really like the instances where he established his position between the receiver and the ball flight on longer sideline throws, shielding the WR from a free path to the pass unless he OPI'd. That's a vet move, in my book.

I liked his physical play. It's something we have lacked in the secondary.

When the real refs come back, though, he might be getting flagged for some of those plays yesterday.
