Jeremy408 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 (edited) 3 minutes ago, NYRaider said: Two of the most important things about being a successful safety are having good instincts and playing smart. Guys like Justin Simmons, Adrian Amos, Marcus Williams, and Harrison Smith aren't great athletes with 4.3 speed but they're among the best safeties in the league because they play with discipline and are instinctual in coverage. Agreed. But a key thing for 98% of defensive players in the NFL is the scheme fit and the position they play. To be honest, that's why I'm so high on Solomon Thomas as a 3T.

Very true but there are also very few systems that use a true box safety(Gus Bradley being one of them) Edited April 28, 2021 by Jeremy408 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oakdb36 Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 So with the Broncos OT getting injured and at risk of losing his whole guaranteed salary, we should expect every player back in their facilities soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or a bunch of players coming in 20 lbs overweight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James only played 63 snaps for the Broncos and was getting paid a ton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
