He was considered the top man to man guy available in FA (not best period just best one on the market at that time) but they put him in a zone where he was pretty bad.
Its the same with the Hatcher signing last year. He is not a read and react player. He is a one gap player. Read and react he is below average imo. One gap, he is pretty good at it. We signed him and put him in a read and react defense and his performance didnt equal the money we were paying him. I was really hoping we would get away from signing stats and sign players that were system guys.

Barry's defense has been incredibly vanilla in the preseason.
The style of play should look a lot different week 1 against Miami.
I expect a lot more blitz and man looks.
