The reason I like the Coleman signing so much is I don't see much of a future for big strong safeties and two-down thumper linebacker in a pass-happy league... That's why there's such a premium on guys like Polomalu; if Iloka can no longer cover, then it's like Kenny V, Harper and it becomes a problematic matchup headache... |
