Just because this bugged me last year. Demps had some really nice BIG hits last year, but I thought his Tackling was horrible. There were many times that he let a player pick up extra yards because he tried to lay a big hit and didn't wrap up. I thought he missed some tackles as well. I don't think he has great hands either.

I will give him the benefit of the doubt because I assume some of these problems could have been from his injury....he did appear to be in the right position most of the time, and I think his experience level was good to have in the backfield. Unless someone explodes in training camp I expect him to start....and I have no problem with him being the starter either. I think he is a capable S. I just disagree with some people on how good he is.
