Are we expecting Long to take over for Robey-Coleman?
Not necessarily.
The young 22 yr old 3rd round selection
David Long has the talent to be a starting corner in the NFL. I would think that he will be a much different DB than when we saw him last season. I would not assume that Wade's guy the older long time Ram corner
Troy Hill will automatically be the 2nd CB for DC Staley either.
Long is the likely choice to be the part-time starting corner.
Troy Hill started 9 Ram gms last season but ended his 2019 season on the down slope missing the final two gms with injury but before the injury his game day performance had begun to trend downward.
Another smaller faster corner is the older 26 yr old
Darious Williams who was Undrafted. Underrated. Under appreciated. Last season he was written off to make our team. Lacking size, weight, and length may make him the ideal choice to be our new Nickel.
Williams finished 5 gms as our starting corner last season & played in 12 gms.
