Maybe this time the answer is actually on the roster. .

He has shown the ability to be a solid tackler and has some coverage skills.. being a CB most of his career. ..

Could he transition to Harper spot as a in the box safety with a off season of bulking up?

iirc he was kind of Eh outside of man. And I don't think he's strong enough or agile enough to cover most teams TEs at SS.

Then again neither is Harper, so.

Not having to face a teams best or 2nd best WR would help.. He was physical as a CB.. And like you said he has better coverage skills than Harper.

Could he with a year of bluking up and learning behind Harper becomes a nice safety. . He does have some what of the body for it.. all he needs to add is maybe 10 or 15 pounds of weight..

He has size, seems to be aware and a good tackler.  Definitely a zone guy anyway.   But, others on the team have observed that White had a confidence issue.  Fixable in a young player and then you're not forcing him to another position longterm for a short term problem.

You think they would have tried it already with our need at safety. Rivera and putting the best player on the field though.....

They needed him at CB last year and he had earned that after his rookie season. .

Now that he played his way out of that position maybe they will look to see..

Also you notice..

This is me stating a opinion on a different subject. ..so.....

No one claimed you never spoke of different subjects. The claim is that you regurgitate the same worn out complaint every time a transaction is made in free agency. Now back on topic because discussing it further is getting us nowheRe.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      So you can explain how he was top 10....but won't.  We need to look it up ourselves?  I googled it.  Can't find the argument based on stats and facts.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By CRA · Posted

      Well, I think Nike has it all down to a sweet mathematical science to max revenue of what they average person will buy in terms of price....and what the average person will do with a dirty jersey.   Then they construct them accordingly.   and yeah, it's not about being tackled in them but I'm sure Nike knows exactly how each tier will react to washings...and then sunlight, heat, fading and on and on.    Just asking google about it there are tons of tiktoks, you tubes, reddit posts, etc with folks complaining about what a simple wash can do to a new one.    Your washing machine gets cooler tech....so you pay more now and it doesn't last as long .  My son's football cleats that help max speed got a hole in them before they even made it into the season this past year.     Now our football jersey's are lightweight with new mesh because it's totally better.....the end game is always because the big corporations have found the synergy between new and improved and not lasting as long.  That's my take.  I think everything is made to wear out sooner under the guise of but it's better today.
