That would be tough to beat, but I think I'd take Reid over Landry.

Landry was awesome too, but I have more confidence in Reid to not blow an assignment trying to get a big hit. And I felt Reid played centerfield better, which you'd need more than run support with a guy like Jamal Adams at SS.

I have to think Ryan Clark fits in that group somewhere.

The OP list is exactly what I would put. Reid was a great safety but it's Laron by a lot for me. I wonder the average age of the posters saying Reid over Landry?

I'd put Mathieu at SS over any of them to keep him on the field more than just the nickel package. You gotta have the most impactful DB of our generation on the field every play. Mathieu can move to nickel on passing downs and rotate in with Adams or Reid.

I'd take Chad Jones at FS over Reid or Landry.

ETA: Maybe not Landry. It's close between those two.

CB Patrick Peterson
CB T White
FS Eric Reid
SS Jamal Adams

Nickel -Honey Badger
Dime - Ron Brooks

The reason I put Reid instead of Laron is because Landry and Adams are both big hitters and great run support guys. Reid was better in coverage and being the field general on the back end
