Another fluff piece but it gives me hope our secondary could be solid. The article says that Seymour will compete with Cockrell for a starting position opposite Bradberry. I am wondering if it might be Seymour and Cockrell as starters and Bradberry relegated to the back up role.

Worst secondary in the NFL. Gonna have to score 30 a game. 

I think that we can score that much with this offense.

I also think that our secondary isn't any worse than last year. Searcy for Coleman is a wash, and I believe Gaulden will eventually be a starter. Our CBs, while not elite, are serviceable, definitely better than last year. This article talks about Seymour (who was taking snaps away from Worley last year) competing with Cockrell, but we also have Doss, who's been a interception machine so far and our 2nd round pick, Jackson! As long as we scheme right, and can pressure the QB without so much blitzing, we'll be fine.

Will easily be better than our last two years.

Explain to me how. Would like to hear this. Our safeties have zero experience and Bradberry is a mid-tier corner that wouldn't start on some if not most teams.

Searcy for Coleman isn't a wash. Who the hell is Searcy? Coleman was a veteran that might have fallen off in coverage, but was still a presence. Depending on a third round hybrid safety to "eventually" be our starter is going to cost us games. There needs to be a veteran brought in before camp to learn the system. Our corners being servicable, that would be one, Bradberry. I don't trust Cockrell. That Giants defense was awful. Maybe Jackson steps up, but Michael Thomas, Julio and Evans will tower over him. I fear Jackson is another Captain, except we spent a 2nd on him and not a 7th.

Our safeties have zero experience?  Adams and Searcy are vets with tons of experience...they may have list scstro from age, but saying they have no experience is beyond laughable.

Searcy is a vet

A solid saftey. He's easily just as good if not better than Kurt has been. If he can consistently tackle and not have coverage lapses often he'll be good for us.

There's a reason the saftey market is at a stand still.

      This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      There was some pretty egregious missed calls vs the Chiefs in the Lions game, especially Kelce. The completion where he clearly used the ground to catch the ball. The hold in front of the ref as Pacheco ran by where the defender was trying to turn around and couldnt because Kelce had him by the jersey. Mahomes openly taunting after scoring a TD. 0 penalties after double digit the week before. Cmon.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      People get trade happy and look at resources as barter items. They fail to see them as resources to be used to our benefit rather than someone else's. Right now, Chuba and Rico are massive benefits to us and a strong rushing attack so greatly benefits any passer, much less a young one like Bryce still is.  And the better our running game, the more our offense can eat up the clock, the less time our defense is on the field. And that is priceless, too. Don't mess with the running game. Don't mess with the receivers. Maybe look at our O-line and think we may have hit on something good during these injuries. Look at our D-line and seem some strength evolving there. Our secondary has its good spots and some that are still developing. Our linebacking corps did well this last outing. Our special teams are on a major upswing as of this past week. Heck, even our QB is showing us a little something right now that we can build on. Perhaps putting out a yard sale sign right now might be less advantageous than looking at the team and saying, "You are all part of something good that is happening. We want to see that continue to grow."
