I'm thinking safety.

Some hate the harper signing, but I'm confident we can use his strengths and not expose his weaknesses.

CB I am confident in as well. I have a feeling cason will play really well getting with Rivera and Wilks.

Last year we seemed to have had a shakey secondary going into the season, but we finished with a #2 defense. I could see our defense be the undisputed #1 this season.

If Godfrey's nickel then CB. If he's safety, then the safety group is better.

So basically Godfrey wherever Godfrey goes that side will be superior? Idk if he will be good this yr coming off the injury. And he hasn't played cb in yrs why do you think he will be a good nickel? Not trying to argue just actually curious.

forced to choose, i'd go with safety.  i don't feel that great about either one, but i think that with that front 7,  that we'll still be in decent shape. i think that safety is pretty much back to the level it was last year heading into the season. CB has a way to go before it gets us back to level. we need at least one more talented guy brought in. i'm not a big fan of keeping godfrey  mainly because of his price tag and the fact he's not a good safety, but i have always thought that CB is his more natural position and that he'd be pretty good there. if they move him to nickel, i'd feel better about CB, but my opinion of the safety group wouldn't change.  the safety corps wouldn't be any weaker if he wasn't there.

Safeties. Sure, Harper and DeCoud are coming off bad seasons, and that's why they signed here for cheap...but they both were recent pro bowl safeties on winning teams. Add in Lester and potentially Godfrey and it's a unit im very confident in.

I don't think our corners are as bad we seem to think. Cason will prove to be a great addition while white will only get better. Thomas, Norman and dockery all have shown signs but were way too.inconsistent.

CB

I actually like our corners. Never a captain fan so replacing him is not a big deal. Cason is the new version of the veteran corner that has past experience with Rivera. Dockery can play. White, Norman, etc., are all tall and should get better this year. In short I think we will be better at corner this year than last.

At safety we have taken a step back. I would have rather had Mike Mitchell than either guy we signed. Godfrey wasn't special before the Achilles and he won't be 100% when the season starts. Lester should improve though. I'll need to see Godfrey play corner at a high level post Achilles with my own eyes in order to believe it.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
