Rambo was never good in college at open field tackling, or tackling in general. If you watched the SEC championship game he looked almost afraid to tackle Eddie Lacy. We should not expect that to change throughout his NFL career.

What he is good at is not getting beat deep and he has shown the ability to break up long passes in college against good quarterbacks. The Redskins last night put him in positions that did not show off his strengths. Let him stay at FS and play deep and as long as he doesn't forget his assignments (Jackson TD) he will be fine. He can play.
