LOL the scouts' job is to scout the player. So yes, they are. If they thought he had any potential to play off the ball, they would have said that. They did not.
Draftnetwork on Gipson's standup ability, if we are doing college scouting reports:
Stand Up Ability - Wouldn't endorse him playing pass coverage reps, didn't see a lot of that on film and he's not a comfortable tackler in space. His upside to stand up reps would be gaining additional leverage as an outside-in run defender who gets better leverage for contain as end man on the LOS.
Also just FYI from yesterday, Colvin never played in a Tampa 2. He played in Jauron's cover 2, which was a totally different scheme up front (two huge tackles who ate blocks and came out on passing downs). That was a much different game with less complicated passing schemes. Hillenmeyer was the SAM during most of Lovie's Tampa 2 days and his game is totally different from Gipson, obviously.
