No disrespect but I think he will be a clear upgrade at that position over Harold. With Spears’s length, coverage ability , range and ability to tackle in space, he’s the perfect fit for the star spot. Many guys in the backend like benefield and Pickett have been talked about more but I think spears has a chance to join them as household names next year

All he has to do is not take plays off and its automatically an improvement.

Spears will become a star when he stars at the star position.

The Vanderbilt and A&M tape was flat out brutal for Perkins.

I hope you’re right. However, and someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but Perkins had a pretty good coverage grade last year.

These are physical skills. Star is position that requires a lot of cerbral work and excellent reaction/decsion skills. That being said I have no idea who is the best person for that job until we see it in action. Spears may be that guy and I do think he has a very good season too.

Think it will be hard to keep Faheem Delane off the field too.

6’2 213 and has quick hips.

Always my complaint about Perkins. Only casuals don’t notice that tbh.

I honestly thought Haulcy would’ve been perfect for it last season, but obligations when you get big NIL.

Disagree, Haulcy was an elite FS. His Break on Ball ability was some of the best I’ve seen in P&G

Superior cerEbral work and excellent reaction/decIsion skills?

That's Zach Weeks.

Honkey Badger Jr. would be your cerEbral man with fast information processing skills.

I’m really excited for Benefield playing really similarly to Haulcy. Haulcy’s impact was not talked about enough last year.

Amazing how karma imparts key spelling errors in the most embarrassing places...

Zach Weeks... I was wondering just yesterday how he fits into the plan this yr. When he was impressed into service last season he seemed to hold his own as well as any of the others we had on the field.
