I don't doubt he took some snaps at S either.

I'd actually like to see him at S eventually. I want to see him truck someone at full speed... he's built like a rock.

I'm hoping our coaches don't plan on starting Malcolm Jenkins at free safety this season... Considering how mediocre he's been at that position and now he's getting less practice reps there. It was a failed experiment, let's just admit it and let him be the nickel cornerback. And yes, any other option at free safety would be an improvement.

For those that play fantasy football, Marques Colston was listed as a Tight End (TE) his rookie season, much to the dismay of my fellow Team Managers in a local league who since, no longer speak to me for being unreasonable, and using bad form for continuing to use him as a TE to my advantage...

You sure about that? He shut down some prominent guys in the slot last year. It's all over his scouting reports. We talked about that on here... I forgot who is was.

If you look at the KSU tape, it was probably one of Kenny's worst (missed coverage assignments/poor angles) performances of the 2012 season along with the OSU game in Stillwater. Those two opponents stand out in my mind from last year. And yes you are right, he did play well against WVU Tavon Austin.

You know how you know the answer but just can't get it off the tip of your tongue? Now I can stop going through all my post.

It's college... they all have bad games. But for the most part, it's suppose to be one of his strengths... the ability to cover whoever, whether big or small, in the slot. You are right though... I remember watching some highlights of Vaccaro for that game and he took a lot of bad angles chasing down some guys for tackles. I don't recall whether it was from the slot or at S though.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.

Nah, I have a feeling that Corey White will be forming a CB tandem with Keenan Lewis in the future. Kenny Vacarro is a more natual strong safety so either Rafael Bush or Isa Abdul-Quddus is the future at free safety... Or we bring one in via the draft or free agency.

with the nfl love affair with double TE sets were both tE can catch you need the flexibility out there.

I do not care what position they are listed at all i want is the best pass defenders on the field on second or third and long. all matched up correctly.

at times S lined up in the slot works and other times 5 cb work best.

now this is the aspect of Rob's coaching coaching that leaves me really wanting. so far it has not been his strong suit

I just hope it isn't too much for the players while also learning a new defense.

Jenkins is still here? Oh well, there is still hope. We still have to cut close to half the players in camp. NO, I am not a fan of his bad angles and bad tackling.
