this gives you the option of drafting jenkins, let him have a run at CB, see what happens, and if he doesn't do well let him replace sharper next year

i'm not high on any of the linebackers in this class. not even any of the usc ones.. if i had to pick one of them it'd probably be cushing (another white boy to play outside).. next year's class won't be all that much better either.. brandon spikes and mcclain are probably the only potential 1st rounders i can think of right now..

i wouldn't mind drafting Gerald McRath of USM in the later rounds..

Interesting footnote: Sharper was one of Mike Tomlin's college teammates.

According to WWL : LINK
quote:

Sharper is expected to play the role of "quarterback of the defense" for new defensive coordinator Gregg Williams' scheme.

Now I thought that was Jon Vilma's job! Everybody's been calling Vilma the "QB of the Defense" for so long. Did he get demoted?

BUT I still LOVE the signing!!




ETA: Looks like the TP answered my question : LINK
quote:

"I've always liked Darren from afar," Williams said Monday. "Whatever happens, I've got to feel comfortable about who the quarterback of our secondary is going to be. Our middle linebacker (Jonathan Vilma) and free safety are going to be the two (defensive) quarterbacks on the football field and they are going to make all the checks and audibles, so we've got to do a good job in finding the right guy.

This is our best FA signing yet (IMO); the Spicer signing was a great one as well.

I think we need to get a good young saftey and let Sharper mentor him. I believe that Sharper has a couple good years left in him and in Greg Williams D he will be productive. Good signing

Even though Sharper isn't the answer for our secondary, I'm glad this shite is over.

So the question is, who's the next player, trade bait, etc. you guys have a love affair with?

I'll tell you, but only if you promise not to do any anything immoral to any of her photos. It's the only way.

Why are the RANTards cheering the fact that we signed a 33 year old FS?
