Glory Bound Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 Great interview! He sounds like a great guy. Gonna be fun to watch him...wish he was just a tad faster though. Thanks for posting that.
John from Riverside Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 The instincts are what I want to key in on with Searcy.... - There is no doubt that he is big enough to bring a hit....at 5'11" 223 pounds this is a BIG safety.....really he is the size of the linebackers that we USED to use in our defensive scheme. If he hits you....you are going down - But its not the timed 40 speed that makes a linebacker....it is the instincts to be in the right place at the right time on pass coverage. I think this was SUCH a good draft....just a really good defensive draft for us.

billsfan89 Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 Nice depth pick up Really see him having an impact on special teams. Also I saw a lot of boards pre-draft having him as the 2nd or 3rd best SS in the whole draft. Nix got great value in an early 4th rounder.
jr1 Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 He seems to have good hands as the Tar Heels wouldn't have had him return kicks otherwise
Wagon Circler Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 Don't see him returning punts ahead of Roscoe if Roscoe's around. But if Roscoe leaves...
John from Riverside Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 I wouldnt really look at Searcy as a "depth" pickup He might not start this year.....but I dont think the plan is to have him just on special teams in the future.
