For the first time since a week before the draft, Walterfootball has us getting a position other than DT.

Bout damn time, I posted a thread 2 months ago saying we need safety, we lost game due to retarded safety play that would have had us in the playoffs everything else staying the same. Then in the playoffs 3 teams lost due to shitty safety play. People don't understand that to fight the deep ball and tight-ends you need elite safety play. Ravens...Head 'splosion.

I just don't think DT's are that efficient anymore. We dominated the Saint's twice this year, Sean Payton or not we rocked them on their upswing at the end of the season at their house, with shitty DT play. I just think a safety would be much more viable, or the top WR in the draft to extend our leads but if it comes down to the last possession in the game I'd rather have us have a long ball stopping safety rather than a marginal upgrade over Brandon Lafell, its not like Lafell sucks.

I've watched just about all the Vaccaro videos on youtube. I don't get why he's such a great prospect. Sure he looks like the best out of a weak class of Safeties (in my opinion), but all I really got out of those videos is that he's a really good tackler. Admittedly the videos I watched weren't very good for showing his coverage skills and all. They showed an interception and a few tipped passes, but not much in that department. Vaccaro is my Kuechly this year. Not the pick or the position I want in the 1st, but if that's the direction they go I'll trust them.

what kind of logic is this. we beat the saints (who were awful this year), so therefore DTs dont matter in todays NFL. what a leap.

What? We lost, actual evidence, purely lost 4 to 5 games this season that would have had us in the playoffs on just poor safety play alone. You can argue grinding it out in the trenches all you want, but at the end of the day its about who has the last possession and it cost us games @ Atl, vs TB, vs Dal, vs, @ Chi.

    • MHS, You are missing Claudin Cherelus is a LB that's in the mix for the 4th spot. He's been here for 2 years and had a couple injuries. I mean he was a wavier claim and been here for evero system, just had bad luck when given a chance. Jon Rhat is the current leader mainly cause of he is the ST ace. But Id say, Cherelus has the same % to make the roster.  CB has the recent wavier claim of MJ Devonshire a 2024 7th rounder. He's got the good-great combine numbers but he's small size. Still he's in the mix for backup duties, in fact all the non-UDFA are wavier claims.  ______________________________________________________________   Dam shame about Clowney. I view this as a bad move. I feel clowny is well worth the 7.7, even as a backup. He played hard the whole year without help. I just feel he would have helped more than either DJ Johnson or Barno.  My only cope is he's 32 and at any point his miro-knee could force him to drop off a cliff performance-wise. I wanted to keep him around at least until the trade deadline and if no chance at playoff, flip him for a anything. NFL is a meat grinder, no love for locals....
    • Might as well. We need to get these rookies on the field and see if they can play ASAP.
    • This hate this part of football and then you have to get down to the 53 Man Roster 🙁
