Right Tackle and Free Safety

See Jason Campbell. Constantly under pressure, O-line blamed incessantly. Insert Todd Collins (not exactly a future hall of famer) and the pressure miraculously goes away.

The Line will play better when there's a capable QB behind them.

But who is your starter, Compton? You bringing back Polumbus?

Personally I am more alarmed that we have no starting QB that we can count on.

How about a blockibg TE? Sign Housler.

Fred tighten up, trying to focus on actual starters, which right now we have a full stable of TEs. And Housler is a pass catching TE, not really known for his blocking.

Trade down and draft Brandon Scherff in the first round.
Move Hall or Amerson to safety.
Problem solved.
But I would get more serious about safety next year.

I dont think Hall would be a good fit for safety. I just dont see him being anywhere near physical enough to play in the middle of the field and running down hill to hit someone.

Hall is great at tracking the ball in the air and adjusting his body but has he slowed down so that he cant do that sideline to sideline?

Amerson has the size i could see him getting caught looking into the back field way too often and forgetting/missing assignments. i could see a lot of balls completed over the top bc amerson was caught looking in.

People talk about DHall's lack of size being a detriment at FS but I look at his skill set. He has the ability to cover a lot of ground as well as exceptional ball skills to make a play when he gets there. He also has a nose for the ball when it's on the ground and he can return a turnover all the way to the house. I think we could possibly get some game-changing plays by moving DHall to FS. He certainly has the knowledge and experience to quickly make the transition.
