Honestly, I think the kid can start right away at FS because he is smart and naturally talented. He can be what they thought Byrd was gonna be and that is a TO machine. The kid from Ohio St is more of a SS to me and will compete with Vaccaro for the job.



honestly it'll always be more of a 4-2-5 with Vaccaro playing as an 'in the box safety' or equivalent to an OLB.

Ideally, on obvious passing downs:
Jordan-Fairley-Rankins-Okafor
Anzalone-Anthony
Lattimore-Vaccaro-Bell-Williams-Breaux

looks solid on paper.

maybe, it does look solid on paper as you said. This is what gets me pumped for this team this year, they finally have the looks of a solid defense with lots of depth too. All around on offense and defense they have loads of talent with people like Oneyamata and Davidson at DT's, shite load of LB's that can play, (No dead weight this year like Kruger and Lauranitis) and talented CB's finally with a 4 deep safety set. On offense the RB's is deep with a talented receiving corps, and special teams kicking game looks strong.

I think AJ Kline will be our play caller on defense, playing the most downs compared to the other LB's.

Marcus Williams will start at FS by game 1 and lead the team in interceptions by the end of the season!

I like Trey Hendrickson & Anzalone, but we will see. I am optimistic....

You spelled Analzone wrong


I'm still questioning whether Kihaha will be healthy enough to get to start over Okafor. Also I don't see Robertson being off the field at LB

Anzalone-Anthony

I'm honestly surprised at the optimism surrounding Anthony. I liked the pick at the time, and am hopeful Nolan can make a useful player out of him. However, the knocks on him from college seemed to show up when he did play (slow to diagnose plays, inability to get off blocks), albeit in a rookie season. He couldn't beat out Stupar or Mauti last year, and still couldn't get on the field with injuries to JL and Ellerbe. With the increased competition for the 3 LB spots this season, I see Anthony as likely to be cut as he is to earn a starting spot.
