Jimmy Wilson has looked confused and poor in pass coverage and I hope the coaching staff avoids putting him in as much as possible, but I do like him blitzing on passing downs, he made a couple plays in preseason including a sack and a forced fumble on a blitz, he is a physical guy and can make some plays coming off the edge on a blitz.
 
Wilson made some mistakes, but I like him as a player. I am ok with him learning on the job. If Allens injury comes back, he is next in line. He needs to be brought up to speed quickly.
 
I think he might do best at Free Safety. At CB he has to stick with one man, and I think he would do better guarding the field. He has a knack for the ball, and he seems to play with instinct.
 
im not for changing player positions but if the guy cant play corner theres no way im putting him at safety, too big of a gamble.
 
Jimmy Williams should be inactive at this point in his career.
 
I agree, if Houston go no-huddle get him in and move him around and blitz on every down.
 
Wilson should be playing ahead of Nolan Carroll

i agreed. but maybe thats incorrect. he certainly shouldnt be in on nickel or dime situations. but he should be able to significantly contribute on specials teams if he truly is a player or is going to turn into one. unfortunately we didnt add any young experienced depth to the secondary in the offseason like we desperately needed to. and thus we end up with a green jimmy wilson on the field which never should have been the case
 
Jimmy Wilson looked impressive in 1 game (First preseason game) and it was against 3rd and 4th string players looking for jobs right now...

Can he be ok in pass coverage and an effective blitzing CB against team's starters??? Not too sure.....
 
What is with people and Jimmy Wilson? He did a couple of blitzes in preseason, but didn't do much else; but now somehow he is the next superstar??? C'mon...we have not seen much of anything out of this guy yet.
