with the recent injury to Dwayne Thomas, who do you other ranters will play nickel. I hope its Tre'De with Rashard and Jalen on the outsides.

Adams I believe, but could see Mills there, and let Jefferson/Martin man the Safety Position.

Collins or Adams baww. Keep white and Robinson on the edge.

Adams and Paris were mentioned. Adams will split some time at safety and nickel. Paris will see the field.

Look for Adams or Jefferson, with Paris possibly getting more time in dime packages like the Mustang.

I think Collins has played the best out of all our corners maybe db's. I think Tre'De is a prototypical nickel smaller, can tackle, and very aggresive.

They have options. Could move Collins outside and put White there. Could just move Collins inside. Adams could certainly step in there. Probably going to see a few combinations Saturday.

So its looking like Adams at nickel and paris at dime. Even thought i would rather have Tre'de inside. That is why i am also not the coach and Paris and Adams sound good to me as well.

I hope to god not because he got torched in the slot last year. He has great instincts but not a cover guy

I'd like to see Mills at nickel with Adams in at safety.

I like Adams there and he's physical enough to help against the run.

Mills is at FS to shore up the position. The breakdowns LY were at the safety position.

He can easily step down as the nickel if needed, but I'd rather him stay there.

Tre is the best cover guy. He's not moving.

Adams/mills at nickel and dime with jefferson at FS. Don't see them throwing paris into the fire when he hasn't played much outside of special teams.
