I thought both players showed some promise against Tampa, hopefully they turn up again later on the practice squad. Bissinger needs to get stronger and work on technique, but in the two defensive series I dug into, he played with good discipline and awareness - he didn't make any tackles, but he created the opportunity for others through gap control and block absorption. Williams looks to have the talent for CB - probably nickel - and STs, it just needs training.

When I re-watched the Tampa game, what I noticed about bissinger is that he was good at being where he was supposed to be and he'd engage a blocker, but he'd never get loose. There were a couple of runs to his side where he just got washed out of the play...

Which is a strength and technique issue, something that given the normal evolution period of a young LB on BB's Pats says he's worth a Practice Squad slot and re-signing in January for the off-season program. I'll gladly root for a player who can pick-up the mental aspect of the game so quickly, it suggests he hasn't had to rely solely on his athletic ability - and after watching him stack up a G/FB double-team on one play, I'd suspect he also has the raw material Coach Woicik needs. I will agree with AWTE over on Planet, he doesn't have the burst off the edge Rogers has, I'd start with him outside to learn that role, but work him inside to see if he can be another Bruschi.
