    This with James was a good night for JFE, and he needed to do something and he has at 2 of our biggest positions of need. I really don't think safety was ever a big need for us in FA.....I think we cut Stewart because they want Simmons and Parks to be full time, and I also think they believe a lot was scheme and coaching related last year.

    I expect another CB in rds. 1-4 of the draft....they were poking around a lot of the 2nd rd. corners in this draft and feel its a pretty deep class.

    I like the signing. I was also hoping we’d have the inside track on Amos but it looks like he’s going to the Packers. Collins, Mattheiu, Amos off the board - are there any other FA Safeties worth a look?

    I do like him a lot, as well as Love from ND and Rock Ya-sin from Temple.....Oruwariye killed it at the combine to I thought.

    The next Tier is probably Clayton Geathers, Tre Boston, Ha Ha Clinton dix and then maybe Tashun Gipson. I'm not sure I would worry about any of them after what just happened to the safety market. I like Simmons at FS and Parks at SS, with Fangio and a better scheme.

    My opinion...we already got our safety in Jackson. Yeah, he can play corner, but he's 31 and should really be trending towards that safety spot. I think at this point in his career, that's the best option. That said, I pray Yiadom makes strides and we can get a solid corner in the draft.

    Yeah they still need 2 more corners. Wouldn’t be surprised if that is 1st pick.

    I think for us to draft a CB at 10. Baker and Murphy need to have amazing pro days. Neither one ran well or did that great in drills at the combine. They both have strong tape and production however. So if they have good pro days or their visit with us goes well(if we bring them in), then I could see CB still be the pick at 10.

    Perfect world, we could move some money around and make room for a Callahan signing...but I won't hold my breath.

    A lot more zone coverage under Vic is what we've been led to believe... Wade liked to put his corners on an island and emphasize M2M. With zone schemes, having a veteran who knows what they're doing is a lot more valuable than a plug & plan man specialist. And in theory, both Harris and Jackson can play inside and outside, so they can disguise more.

    He runs more of a zone scheme, but there will be plenty of press as well and of course...corners need to be able to tackle. So, bigger corners that can jam at the line, but still have the ability to drop into zone.

    From what I have heard he likes our guys to dog. So they play man for the first like 10 yards ish, then break into zone after that. Not always, but often.
    The Plan at the moment:

    Draft: Trade a 3rd and 6th this year to a team to move up and get a 2nd next year (this will happen).

    Players I want:
    Jake Ferguson (Jake Butt) or Jelani Woods or Jeremy Ruckert or Cade Otten (owen daniels) at TE- All 4th rd or later.
    Troy Anderson LB 3rd/4th rd (yay Timmy!)
    Neil Farrell, JR DL- run stuffer- bye purcell

    If we signed Jackson to play safety at 11 per in the twilight of his career and passed up on Amos at 9 per coming into his prime, something is seriously wrong with this front office.
