"With Darren Sharper on the sidelines, S Usama Young looked promising. He filled holes quickly against the run, immediately closed on a few screens – once coming in hot to put a loud pop on Thomas – and earned consistent praise from defensive backs coach Dennis Allen for his efforts. Young also made a quick play in coverage to stop Shockey well short of a first down, with the fiery tight end slamming the ball to the turf. " From NOS.com B&G article linked above.

Gotta like the sound of that. Good for UY, a year late, IMO, but rather late than never.

That part of the report stuck out to me to, Usama is an aggresive corner, I think this change to Safety is what is going to get the most out of his ability, he can support the run and has the speed to defend sideline to sideline as a FS...he may be a surprise starter before the year is out.
