With all the buzz about Dak and Amari being priorities going forward..
Now that Richard is gone, where does this leave Jones?
We tend to take him for granted and we assume he is replaceable.
I think not.
Initially he was drafted to be our safety. He was used at both safety positions before moving him to CB.
In our new defense, multiple position talent is not expendable to me.
If we moved him back to safety in zone defenses and out to CB in man to man..
he suddenly becomes multi useful and can disguise the defense prior to the snap. This should be very confusing for their QB to figure out.
And supposedly he is fast and won broad jumps in college. Meaning he should be effective as a blitzer.
This would be interesting as well..blitz from CB or safety.
What a concept.
So now should we keep Jones, give him more options to use him and forget spending a high draft pick trying to find a top safety?
I just believe if we are having to fortify everywhere on defense, it becomes a leaky dam to fix.
And depending on rookies to rescue us is not good.
Landry used to say for every rookie you have starting..
it will cost you 1 game a year.
Hmmmm..
As always..comments from the peanut gallery?
