Default Can Ernie Simms play safety?

Does anyone know? He seems like he has the speed and the instincts. Do you think RR has considered the idea?

Sometimes we think a little too much.

What's so absurd about my idea? Obviously I don't mean now because he is injured. I mean for next year he is a under sized LB with speed and seems to have an instinct for the ball. Maybe he competes with church and Johnson

No dice. We need Sims and Albright at ILB. And if he is playing safety, then most likely that means that Dan Connor is on the field. You might as well stand aside and let them dance right into the endzone.

Not that crazy. He has the speed and can certainly hit and play near the LOS. The question is does he have the hips and technique to cover. There have been 6-4 and 6-5 safeties to play. Randy Hughes was 6-4 and I think he would have been an All Pro player if he'd not been injured. I actually think Carter could play S if he dropped 10 or so. Never going to happen though.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

Rob wanted to draft him and convert him to safety. So, yes, RR has considered the idea.

No...

There is no formula for success except an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings.

I doubt it. He probably wouldn't look much worse than McCray though

Trent Dilfer: "Tony [Romo] has greatness in him. I think when you talk to other people that really play the quarterback position, there's a few guys that really have incredible greatness in them, and Tony is one of them. I think the issue here is he needs more help from his teammates. I think they are not nearly as talented as people say they are, from 1 to 53. I'm talking about the total roster.”
