    Our DB situation--What do we do???

    We have a lot of ???? marks in our secondary. We have Nmadi, Charles, Fabian, and Rout all as CBs. One of these guys will be gone in a few years, this just isn't a need for all four. Anderson and Gibson at SS. Gibson will start, but can he be consistent enough??? I like Stu. at FS. The question is, who do you want at CB and what will the role be for the others??? I really worry about our secondary. Be have the potential to be the best or the worst in the league.

    Training camp hasn't even started yet. I'm sure alot of this stuff will sort itself out in camp and preseason. Just have to wait and see.

    yeah its time for nmadi to step up he's had plenty of time to learn now he needs to produce fabian and routt are rooks but hill is pretty solid i like stu at fs but gibson needs to step up and prove that he is not a bust if we wants to start at strong saftey

    our DB situation is in much better shape last year as opposed to this year. woodson is still there, as good as last year, so we're fine there, and our big weakness our 2 and 3 guys have been improved much more this year, IMO. we had buch and walker, both are horrible, so we got hill, who is much better then walker, and nnamdi is a harder hitter, and a much better player then buch, we wont get burned nearly as much.

    overall, our secondary is much better. then you add in stu who is much better then ray, and i cant stress how much more.

    again, i say i like our situation much better in the defensive backfield then last year, buch and walker were huge liabilities, and hill is one of the much better nickel backs in the league and aso is ready to start.

    what we need to worry about in all honesty is putting the right schemes on the field, and that falls stricly on the shoulders or rob ryan, but we have better players to do certain things as opposed to last year. like we had to put DE's at LB's in our 3-4 scheme and it was just a mess. now we have better LB's better DL, and an overall better secondary. peep the sig, and read what stu says bnecause it is true.

    Our secondary is fine - possibly the strongest part of our defense.
