LumberJackSker Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I think Charles Jackson might see some time at saftey but i doubt its at strong saftey i cant see them bringing a 175 pound former corner into the box to stop the run Quote Link to comment

flatwaterfan Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I think Cooper was on the field playing dime. Later I saw Blatchford so Cooper might have goofed up. He can be inconsistent. I like Charles at FS and Harvey at SS. I like speed at FS. Harvey is a bigger hitter and I think is better at SS, although I am not sure if there is a difference in Bo's scheme. I am still wondering if Mo can crack the lineup somewhere. I wonder a bit about the way they do dime personnel. To me if you bring in extra receivers you should bring in CB type players, we tend to lean towards safety types when we go dime. To me a dime guy should be a guy like Mitchell who is quick and should be able to stick with a slot guy. Generally slot guys are smaller & quicker. If they keep the TE's on the field then I can see using a safety type or a very speedy OLB. But then I suppose you can run the slot guy towards the LOS and block a smaller guy easier on draws,jail breaks etc, so it would be better with a safety type that way. Don't forget Gangwish at SLB Quote Link to comment
huskergeorge990 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Everyone is penciling in Ankrah as a starter opposite Gregory, however play at both ends really needs to improve. Is it possible that McMullen edges him out as the starter? He has been, supposedly, tearing it up on the scout team. I know that Bo likes going with the players that "know the system", but still there really needs to be a lot of improvement at both ends of the line. The defense will be starting a lot of potential really good players, hope the young guys are couched up well and live up to expectations. Quote Link to comment
deedsker Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I think Cooper has a future at linebacker. Big and physical but still has speed. Also think that SJB has a future at safety. He has the size and speed to do work in the run and pass and if he can see the ball coming the whole time he can become a huge threat to take the ball away. Quote Link to comment

He has the size and speed to do work in the run and pass and if he can see the ball coming the whole time he can become a huge threat to take the ball away. I agree. I think Cooper would be better at Will. I never understood the cooper/blatchford as dime guys. I would agree using a more safety type there like our FS and bringing in another safety to take his spot. Also, wasnt there talk of moving Moss to DT? Quote Link to comment

JTrain Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Guess the 3 TE set is out. Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I know it earlier folks, but considering how much youth we have coming in next year on D, I thought it would be fun to project the depth chart. I'm most interested in what people think the lineup for DT and LB will look like. I'll start first (I understand this is more than 11 players, but I thought we should account for various formations) Offense QB - 1. Martinez, 2. Armstrong. Stanton RS. RB - 1. Abdullah, 2. Heard, 3. Cross (short down back) FB - 1. Janovich, 2. Marrow WR - 1. Enunwa, 2. Allen (hopefully he gets healthy) WR - 1. Bell, 2. Westerkamp or T. Evans WR - 1. Turner, 2. Wullenwaber, 3. A. Moore LT - 1. Sirles, Moudy/A-Rod LG - 1. S. Long, 2. Reeves? C - 1. Pensick, 2. Mark Pelini? RG - 1. A-Rod (move him back to G), 2. Jake Cotton? RT - 1. JUCO hopefully, 2. Qvale TE - JUCO? TE - J. Long Defense DE - 1. Ankrah, 2. McMullen DE - 1. Gregory, 2. Moss DT - 1. Rome, 2. K. Williams DT - 1. Valentine, 2. Curry SLB - 1. T. Brown (used heavily on pass rushes), 2. Afalava/M. Newby MLB - 1. Santos, 2. M. Rose WLB - 1. Z. Anderson, 2. Santos Nickel - 1. C. Evans, C. Jackson Dime - 1. Cooper, 2. Seisay CB - 1. A. Green/Evans (when not at NB), 2. Jean-Baptiste CB - 1. J. Rose/A. Green, 2. Mitchell/Siesay SS - 1. C. Jackson, 2. Cooper FS - 1. H. Jackson, 2. Cooper Special Teams K - 1. Bondi, 2. some walk-on? P - 1. Bondi, 2. some walk-on? KR - 1. Bell, 2. Turner PR - 1. Turner, 2. Bell, 3. A. Moore? I agree with most of that. What ever happened to Brion Carnes at QB. I think this offseason once the staff has a chance to evaluate ARod film throughout the season I don't see him at a starter even at guard. I think we will pick up another receiver, a DT, and maybe a DE that will be added to the depth chart. Some people are really worried about the D next year but we got a ton of talent coming in. He moved to WR a long time ago... Someone else help me out but wasn't there talk of him on defense too? Wouldn't be a surprise. He is one of the best athletes on the team. Any credibility you had left on the board was just lost. The guy is a headcase. Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 ^^^^and that has what to do with athletic ability? You can be a head case and still run fast and jump high... Quote Link to comment
The King Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Offense QB - 1. Armstrong 2. Martinez RK3 Stanton RB - 1. Heard 2. Abdullah 3. Cross 4. Taylor 5. Newby FB - 1. Janovich, 2. Marrow WR - 1. Enunwa, 2. Dom Walker WR - 1. Bell, 2. Westerkamp or T. Evans WR - 1. Turner, 2. ZO 3. Wullen LT - 1. Don't care. Going to run all over teams anyway. Struggle in pass protection against faster defenses. Inevitable injuries/moving of positions as well. LG - 1. Don't care. Going to run all over teams anyway. Struggle in pass protection against faster defenses. Inevitable injuries/moving of positions as well. C - 1. Don't care. Going to run all over teams anyway.

Uhh, after QB there was basically nowhere for him. They even gave him a shot to return kicks and he couldn't catch the ball... Quote Link to comment

Don't forget Gangwish at SLB Gangwish moved to DE and has practiced with the 3 deep. They're putting weight on him now and he will be a factor next year. I know in practice our O-Line struggles to block him pretty severely. He's a hybrid type with an attitude. Quote Link to comment
