[quote=SmootSmack;305805]I was all for that a few months ago, but not now with the addition of Landry[/quote]
Let Springs start the season and then bring in the rookie.

[quote=DGreen28;305803]I think you move Springs to safety and start smoot and rogers at the corners[/quote]

Yes, why play with 2 corners, when you can have 3? Sounds like the emergence of the 1-4-6! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Troy Vincent was a corner for most of his career and he play safety for the skins. Springs is 10x better than Vincent

You didn't get it. I was messing with you. There is a thread called the 1-4-6 defense. If you would like to read it. It's crap though so please don't post on it.

Re: The Official First Unofficial Predict the Opening Day Roster Thread
 

No, start Landry now, he is the man. We started Champ ASAP, SMoot ASAP and they were studs here. Taylor started ASAP and is the human missile. We could use another human missile that can be utilized for a pass rush in lieu of our present predicament with the D line. We might not have Springs come Week 1 so putting him at S might not be an option anyway. IF he does stay, we need him with Smooty at CB, not Rogers.

[quote=70Chip;305419]I think Smootsmack has it right with the following exceptions:

1. Fox will be the 3rd safety behind Landry and Pray-Low and,

2. Who in the heck is Cedric Griffin?

cedric griffin is the cornerback for the vikings

0Okay : This is assuming no one gets cut and we only pick up a couple of guys and it is supprising just how set this roster is - Other than DL I am quite happy with the strength in depth and starters .

QB: Cambell, Brunell, Development player (Spinner/Carlson etc) - having two aging vetrans is unlikely (3/3)

RB: Portis, Betts, Cartwright (3/6)

WR: Moss, ARE/Lloyd, Thrash, Espy/development/june 1st cast off) (5/11)

OL: Jansen, Thomas, Raybach, WADE, Samuels, Pucillio (also back up TE), Lofu, Tucker (8/19)

FB: Sellers, Nemo (2/21)

TE: Cooley, Yoda/developmental player (2/23)

DL: Carter, Golsten, Griffin, Daniels, Wynn, Montgomery, Evans, Green, June 1st cut) (9/32)

LB: Washington, Fletcher, McIntosh/Marshell, Sarts - also plays a chris Clemons situational pass rushing end role, Campbell, Blades (7/39)

CB : Springs, Rogers - i still don't get the hate, Smoot - or the love, Mackin, Jimoha (5/44)

S : Taylor, Preliou, Landry, Stoutmire/Fox/Dougherty fight out for 1 or 2 roster spots as in the past we have gone with 4 CB and 5 S or 5 CB and 4 S and has some interchangability. (5/49)

K : Suisham (1/50)
P: Frost (1/51)
LS: Albright (1/52)

The final roster spot goes to area of need or stand out special teams guys.

I know he has skills, but I don't think Yoda has the height we're looking for at TE.

He doens't have the height, but he does generate a bit of 'force' :)
