If a team loses most of their back seven (or eight, I guess), hires a coach who uses more defensive backs, and then trades up to draft a safety....I'd say probably? 

No comment on Little. Different case. Coaching staff change, ownership newly involved on the football side, etc.

It was sarcasm. I agree that a second round pick should contribute. Getting contributions from only your first rounder isn’t a good thing. People in here were giving all kinds of excuses last year about Little as if pick 37 shouldn’t contribute year 1.

One thing I've grown to appreciate over the years is how many coaches in the NFL aren't really "football minds," they just learned to do something and got really good at doing it over the years.  When faced with the potential of doing something different, they can't or won't.

 

Path of least resistance. Common to so many walks of life.

And the gray matter gets rigid for most, sooner or later.

I don't think I've ever seen the three high safety look with a four man front. IMO, one of the most intriguing elements about this season is exactly what our defensive system is going to look like.

People are putting too much stock into what Rhule said about a 4 man front being our base. 

If I remember correctly that was said before the draft, at that point there Is zero reason for him to be specific or even honest about what our plans are defensively this up coming season.

They had a lot of success at Baylor running a 3-3-5, along with what they did in the draft it would be naïve to think we weren't going to run that alignment at least some of the time.

Also people need to remember that in today's NFL, your base is actually the exception not the norm.

I see this a lot in my business, and life in general.

Football coaches are no different...well, to be honest, they are more different, they are even more stubborn than most.

      Them playing behind a couple more seasoned guys until they get familiar with coverage and pace of play is a good thing though. We really can use them to spell the other guys, and in situational ball especially with Ransom on possible run/blitzing downs.

      I think completion percentage is a bit of a overinflated stat for a qb too. People place to much stock into it. So many factors to consider with it : receivers, how many attempts are made deep, the defense etc all play a roll in it. When it’s considerably low 50% or less the QB accuracy can come into question. But I don’t think it’s necessarily one of the better percentages to put so much importance into for that position. General effectiveness is far more indicative of the QB you have. First downs, 3rd and 4th down conversions, points scored and clutch plays IMO is how you grade a QB. Always bothered the poo out of me how people downed Cam for his completion percentage and that’s what they used to disregard him as an all time great. Dude damn near averaged 3tds to 1 turnover a game and was an obvious difference maker for us.
