    We’ve always wanted our safeties to be “interchangeable” BOB & Romeo have been preaching that for years. When is the last time we had a big time thumper Safety? Kareem not included because he didn’t get to stick at Safety

    Reid and Hal and this guy sounds great.

    Does Romeo differentiate between a corner getting toasted over the middle and a corner getting toasted on a corner/post?

    Pollard was definitely more of a linebacker in safety's clothing, but Swearinger was just as much of a liability in coverage.

    Pollard simply was too slow to cover, but DJ was too dumb. Different circumstances, same result.

    Twin cover safeties is the new normal in the NFL, and ur CBs are going to need a ton of help, so I'm glad we have depth there now.
