DaBoys Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 22 minutes ago, WizardHawk said: This makes me crazy. After 2.5 seasons, they need to quit tinkering. He's best suited for CB. Move him there, leave him there. It just shouldn't be a work in progress at this stage in Jones career. I mean that has to be Marinelli right? He's calling the shots as far as defensive alignment. Him and his subordinates. Marinelli is the one working in progress. SJ is saying this but I would think Marinelli is the one who wants him at FS ultimately. Then again I could be wrong. This team is so odd sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we "lose" Scan I could see Byron taking over an outside CB spot. Byron -- Lewis in the slot and Awuzie on the other outside. Brown falls into a rotational 4th CB role where he will get plenty of snaps. Heath moves to FS and Woods or FRAZIOR take the down safety spot. Obviously drafting a safety would help. And Brown? What can Brown do for you? I hope he continues to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt79511 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I could get behind a secondary with Jones, Awuzie, Lewis, and Brown at CB with Heath, Frazier, and Woods mixing it up at S They seem to like Woods at slot corner though which would imply Jones sticks at FS. The current DC has but little time to come up with their optimal alignments and uses lest he be scapegoated come January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt79511 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Semi-related: https://www.fanragsports.com/film-room-adjustments-in-secondary-pay-off-for-cowboys/amp/ Complacency is the enemy of progress. Over the first 12 weeks of the season, Jason Garrett, Rod Marinelli and the rest of the Dallas Cowboys’ defensive staff became complacent. Even though the Dallas defense ranked 26th against the pass and 28th against the run, Marinelli and Co. refused to make any noteworthy changes.

I prefer this idea. I' tired of watching Scandrick get beat and have little to no ball skills. I hope we get a new defensive coordinator and go with Jones Awuzie and Lewis as the top 3 with Woods and Frazier as the safeties. Bringing in a vet safety would be ideal. Use the draft to shore up the front 7 and receiving core. Hopefully with those resources and with a new D coordinator we can have a solid defense.

flyingmonkey30 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I'd like to see Byron at CB and bring in a veteran safety to help with the youth in the secondary. Maybe a Glover Quin or someone like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a damn good box safety, with 3 INT's. Consider him a rich mans JJ Wilcox, meaning one that can tackle and cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
