The FS Conundrum
Since we currently don't have a single healthy free safety on the roster let's talk about our options.
I saw the other thread talking about Marcus Ball getting the start and that scares the heck out of me. He strikes me as purely a traditional strong safety that has been put in the old Roman Harper role. I think Corey White got some reps at safety during training camp which seems fortuitous on our coaching staffs part. Problem is that we're already pretty weak at CB as is so in this scenario we'd see a whole lot more Dixon/P Rob and maybe even some Jean-Baptiste. A lot of people want Pierre Warren back. That's not a bad idea. I don't think the coaching staff disliked him... We were just set at FS with Byrd and Bush. Any free agents out there worth a look? I know Jordan Pugh was with us last season. Today's tryout Tuesday so we'll find out soon who might be under consideration. Let's hear your thoughts. |

We worked out a bunch of safeties a couple of weeks ago. I'd imagine we'll see one signed today. Rambo perhaps? |

So far I've only heard that we've worked out three LB's: Moise Fokou, L.J. Fort and Jerry Franklin.

Had we known we'd lose all 3 FS's to IR by week 10 I doubt we'd have cut him. |

Re: The FS Conundrum
FS? SS? Can't one guy play both? I already know the answer to that.:roll:

Re: The FS Conundrum
Champ retired today.... Maybe he could play FS ?
|
Re: The FS Conundrum
Anyone hearing anything about safeties we may have had in for workouts today? All I've seen is that we tried out a few LB's in the wake of Denver signing Todd Davis.

Re: The FS Conundrum
White to FS is not too bad. PRob would have to step up in that #2 CB spot, and I've like his play so far this year. We will need Dixon for nickle or SJB for nickle and dime.
SJB...I am extremely frustrated with his lack of development so don't get me started on this dude. 'Bout ready to tear this guy a new one, but I'll save that temper tantrum for another day. KVac, Stanford, and Ball as SS. Really would like to see Ball on the field the least amount of snaps as possible. If Ball does happen to be out there more, I can't honestly have a lot of hope for even average coverage with this guy running around doing stupid crap. And maybe, just maybe, all these secondary issues will motivate a more consistent pass rush. Hah...did I just type that? |

Is Dixon that good, or is SJB that bad? Maybe Dixon is a "D plus" with SJB chiming in at a healthy "F minus"... |
Re: The FS Conundrum
We signed Warren!!!

Re: The FS Conundrum
Well there we have it!! Pierre Warren is back baby! I knew we wouldn't blow that opportunity at a do-over.

Re: The FS Conundrum
I don't think I've ever been more excited about a dude being signed from a PS to our active roster than I am now.

Re: The FS Conundrum
My boy Warren is back I'm happier than a pig in s**t.

Re: The FS Conundrum
Warren was a beast in Preseason... Let's see how he plays with the big kids

Re: The FS Conundrum
It's gotta be crazy going from one team's practice squad to potentially starting for another team on Monday Night Football in the space of a week. I'm sure he won't start though, but if he does get some playing time we'll have to cut the kid some slack if he messes up. It's a wild transition.

Re: The FS Conundrum
Most logical move

Re: The FS Conundrum
Thankful we signed Warren. Well...guess he gets to show what he's got.
