Without looking for myself, isn't Collins a strong safety?  I imagine we will keep Reid around and surely we won't employ the double SS strategy again and sacrifice pass coverage...  Actually, yea.. we probably will.

I doubt we're going to spend the type of money Collins is likely to get no matter what.

Where'd he play this season?

The Arizona Cards. Didn't do much.

I like him, but just his attitude & personality. He's too inconsistent & not sure if I could trust him. Not worth a 3-year/$9 mil deal.

Now I'd be totally cool with signing Eric Reid back for a 3-year/$9 mil deal, but i'm sure he wants much more than that.

I don't think the owner is going to influence the coach's philosophies. If he wants a coach with different philosophies then he should've fired Ron. Ron has made it pretty clear that he values building his defenses around the front seven and that safeties have the lowest positional value in his defense. All you have to do is look at our roster building history while Ron has been here. Whether it's been Gettleman or Hurney at GM, our resources have been spent on the front seven on defense. We've never drafted a DB in the 1st round or spent big money on a DB throughout Ron's tenure. We've never drafted a safety higher than the 3rd.

I think that Tepper didn't fire Ron because of timing. Meaning when he actually became the owner, when the draft started, etc. I don't think that Tepper pushed his direction much then. I think that we'll see more of Tepper's influence moving forward. 

Going through the ownership process, taking ownership, preparing for FA, preparing for the draft, finding a new HC and GM...I think it's a bit much walking in the door. We'll see soon enough...

uh yeah, I'd take Reid 1000 times over Boston.  Dude can't tackle.

Boston has a 74 grade in PFF and was rated the 24th best safety in the league. He was rated above average. I would think if the money is right he would be an upgrade over Adams PFF was a 51 or Reid was rated a 66 or 54th.

Argue PFF scores are bogus if you like  but he appears to be an upgrade for us.

Tre seemed to have improved his tackling since he left. And he still has the ballhawking abilty he had in Carolina. If we can get him on a team friendly deal I would be all in on him

Well, part of the reason he isn't here now is that his definition of what he's worth differed somewhat from what teams thought he was worth.

      Joint Practice - Jets

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.

      You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
