What's more important in this defense? A lock down CB or a fast, hyper-athletic FS?

I would say lock down CB since there is so much press coverage.

I'm somewhat torn, but think I lean that way as well. I ask because I think Chris Miller could play anywhere in our secondary and might be the most athletic guy we have back there, as a true freshman. I'm not sure who takes TT's spot in 2017, and that's a pretty vital position that almost requires supreme athleticism, which I don't think Lagunda or Moeller possess, and I don't think Fisher is that guy either.

I'm not sure though, TT definitely wasn't the fastest guy on the field but he was smart as hell, had good ball skills was one of the hardest hitters on the team. I don't think Fisher brings the same physicality but as evident in the Wazzou game he can tackle and I would think he is faster than TT. I am just worried because TT was so good when the ball was in the air because of his size, length and leaping ability, sort of like the anti-Crawley.

TT plays with ridiculous football speed, though. One of the most positive comments about him from the NFL guys is his range and closing abilities. Some of that is him being smart and diagnosing things quickly, but he still plays so fast.

 

[Duff Man]

For sure. Bakh is maybe that tall.

But I really think that Haigler has locked down RT for the next 3 seasons. And after this year, I kind of expect Miller to take over LT for the next 2.

I really think that Moretti is at OG for a while. But you never know.

I dunno, Haigler seems like a good fit at LT and Moretti seems like a natural RT.

Love this now 2 years ago to look at what people think, predict and then what really happens to 18-21 year olds.

I need to do this every year with the same questions.

Do it! (Maybe wait until Feb)

 

[INTHABUFF]

Gotta love some of the Sparaco takes.
