I think you're right.  Not being able to cover anyone at the safety position probably doesn't fit in to O'Brien's scheme.   I'm sure here he can fill in for the void we have been missing since Sherrod Martin left if we traded for him.

 

Uh... I don't want to trade for him.

Safety is becoming a huge position on defense now with all of the tight end usage. Not that safety wasn't always important, but I think having a stellar safety has caught up with desiring a lock down corner. So much zone is played with the freakish atheltes at WR and TE that you need that deep man back there. Also, stepping in to stuff the run is vital now, so I don't get why a team would let a young talent like Swearinger go for a 3rd day pick.  

 

He's not like a McCourty or Chancellor type of safety, but he has a lot of potential to fill out at only 23.  If our 5th would get him here, I'd do it in a minute. He's far from perfect, but he hasn't played behind this front 7. It would eliminate a huge need with a minor pick.

      Canales' O - Year 2

      By strato · Posted

      Tell me something I don’t know. I said right there in what you quoted I wasn’t optimistic. I said I could still be hopeful. Which ain’t the same but will have to do.  I have optimism regarding more compartmentalization aspects of the team. Some players. The good draft we had is cause for optimism. Maybe that Tepper is actually being less harmful. Maybe.  I had some for Canales but his meter is about 50% right now with me.  Etc

      Canes vs Ducks 7pm

      Got a little more juice in us this period. Gotta get these chances to start falling. Ducks and us keep getting these chippies that are missing. First team to start banging these in and I think the floodgates open.

      S Fowler Coker in, Legette out as wr2

      The things that make people give up on him is that he is getting worse in terms of simple football things and he isn't improving on much in terms of being a WR. He has improved his drops but then he has increased his insanely boneheaded penalties. I mean, the dude has THREE false start penalties. That is the second most on the team.  Couple that with his obvious limitations in terms of field vision, agility, etc and you just start to wonder what there really is to even believe in. I'll put it this way, when such a notoriously terrible personnel management coach like Canales gives up on you, that's saying a lot. He has ridden more bums for longer than any of us care to remember.
