Jets waived Ronald Martin to clear room for Dion Bailey. They claimed Martin from Seattle a few weeks ago. #nyj
Seattle waived Bailey to make room for Kam Chancellor.
UDFA out of USC in 2014:
Dion Bailey
Height: 5-11.5
Weight: 201
40: 4.65
Year: 4Jr
School: USC
Position: S
Positive: Three-year starter who lined up at both safety and outside linebacker. Junior totals included 61 tackles, 5 INTs, and 6 PBUs after 80 tackles as a sophomore. Solid college defender with average physical skills for the next level. Remains disciplined with assignments, quickly closes to the play, and wraps up when tackling. Aggressive. Wedges through blocks on the inside and shows quickness. Flashes sideline-to-sideline range and effectively makes plays in open space.
Negative: Lacks a great closing burst to the ball. Overpursues the action and takes himself from plays. Not big enough for linebacker or fast enough for safety.
Analysis: Bailey was a consistent defender at USC but comes with poor measurables for the NFL. His best shot is making a roster on special teams coverage units.
