Position run down...
Scroll down to the bottom.
Sorry if germans, ran a search and didn't find anything on this...

I think I am the only guy on this board that thinks this is a good idea. I know everybody says CJ is a natural safety and that we shouldn't take him out of this position, but I think he could be involved in more plays as a linebacker. I also think he could easily play at 230 lbs and be lightning fast. Additionally, I think there is a move to make defenses faster to counter the new up tempo offenses (i.e. Texas and Auburn over the last decade).

SICHERHEITEN - Jones' Funktionsbewegung zum Verteidiger bedeutet, dass die reale Unterstützung zu Harry Coleman an der starken Sicherheit Stefoin Francois ist. Unterdessen sind Reports über Curtis Taylor an der freien Sicherheit schrecklich gewesen; Ich wurde gestern erklärt, dass die Trainer Taylor erwarten, ein Jahr zu haben, wie Craig Steltz letztes Jahr tat. Danny McCray ist unterdessen Taylor' s-Unterstützung an der freien Sicherheit und ist auch der Groschen zurück fürs Erste; Peterson und Brandon Taylor' die s-Großtaten, die für Jobs am Cornerback konkurrieren, konnten beeinflussen, wie LSU das Groschenpersonal behandelt. Der defensive Entwurf des Tigers benennt mehr zu den Sicherheiten in den Sätzen MehrfachDB eher als Cornerbacks, obwohl - LSU' s trainiert wie zum Überraschungsangriff in der Lage sein eine größere, körperlichere Sicherheit und sie können mehr laufen gelassene Unterstützung im Allgemeinen außerdem erhalten diese Weise.

Semantics. He'll "function" as an RPG.

I agree, with all of the spread offenses, regardless of his position we need him on the field. He doesn't have to be a full time LB, but just keep him in the game.

BTW, Jones will start at safety per Dandy Don, so that puts this matter to rest.

This makes more sense than the thread that got started last week about some guy wanting Trindon to play defensive end.

As defensive teams struggle to deal with new variations of the spread offense, teams will be playing a more hybrid-type LB-FS. USC has a beast who weighs 230 and runs a 4.45. Georgia I think has a similar kind of guy. Read the latest SI. This is a very good fit for Chad Jones in our attempt to defend the likes of Appy State, Aub, the Crocs, et. al.

I agree with you...sort of. Let's not call it a linebacker, but let's give him 80% of the responsibilities of a linebacker. He will be called a "rover" or a "hybrid" or whatever. I just think it makes more sense than people think. I know it's "out of the box" thinking, but he such an exceptional athlete I think it works.

Once again an idiot misquoting. I said nothing about playing defensive end. Try reading a thread before you post on it...
And I agree that more speed is needed on Def these days with the spread. Give TH a chance.
You know you wanna see it and see it work well...

Agreed. But LSU will play a lot of nickel. He WILL BE OUT there. Call him what you want. If you prefer nickelback, then call him that instead of "hybrid-LB".

Not this again. I thought that was a joke.

You don't take the most prototypical safety in the country and turn him into a weak linebacker. Let him spend his one year splitting time at both safety positions with Taylor and Coleman. Let him play rover at his current weight. I wouldn't under any circumstances ask him to put on useless weight at a position he would still be undersized for, especially when you consider he projects to play safety in the NFL.

with talented safety like coleman, it would be a good move to have Chad Jones play linebacker part-time. he has the size and it would be deadly having a linebacker that can run a 4.3 40.

He's like 210 or 215.
Our linebackers are all above 230. Posted on 8/11/08 at 11:03 am to Stagg8
Hey I don't mind the flames or discussions, just don't misquote when you do.
Good point Stagg, LB for CJ would be bad move.
