So we are all concerned about stopping the run and one of the team website's reporters goes out and posts a depth chart "starting" 6 DBs and one LB. That oughta solve it...

Interesting the have Mukaumu over Joseph 2nd behind Gilmore.
Damone Clark over Jabril Cox 2nd to LVE
Joseph nor Cox are even listed. Though it is meant to be a 2 deep depth chart, but they have 3 listed in a few areas.

What is FLEX, as they have Kearse and Bell there, and Wilson as the sole SS.
Kearse and presumably Bell are a 2nd LB that also could be considered another SS. It's what Quinn has been running.

Yikes, Joseph is behind CJ Goodwin?

Also, if Tyler Coyle is on the field we are in huge trouble. Guy cannot play.

Pat is being creative, but DQ puts 2 LBs on the field, so that Flex position may be used in more of a dime situation.

Hopefully Micah play a little more MLB and let LVE be the WILL on run downs.

Mukuamu LCB2 is interesting, but he could do that and backup FS too.

Overall, lots of depth and talent, glad to finally have a good defense.

Joseph will hopefully be trade before the start of the season. Get something, anything.
why would you trade him.. literally people on this board forget about what he did... he is a special teams ACE and we can't keep putting CJ Goodwin on the roster every year... let him play ST until the end of his contract and keep CJ off the roster, he is expensive and takes up another depth piece... at least KJ can play corner in a heartbeat - have you ever seen CJ Goodwin come into a game for CB relief? get the bias of he's a murderer out of your mind and look at it from a cap and talent stand-point, all you would be doing is giving another team a special teams ace

Interesting that Cox doesn’t get nearly the hate that others have gotten despite doing less than nothing in the league. Even guys like Trysten Hill played and weren’t anything special but weren’t really liabilities either.

ok in all seriousness we cannot take a EDGE player in the top 3, we are stacked really at the Edge position. I see Galimore and Golston are Due to come up for contract in a year or 2 so we need to find replacements for them at 3T and we only signed Hankins on a 1 year deal so we need another NT with Bohanna.

i see top needs for Defense as:

NT
3T
LB
CB - we have more leaving next year in FA.

I don’t think we will but remember law doesn’t have much time left on his deal
I don’t think it would happen unless someone slipped

Based on the rankings that just came out CB is the best of those 4 by a wide margin in terms of depth in draft quality....edge is the number 1 apparently...we need help where pickins are going to be slim so this could be an interesting draft in terms of movement

What kind of adult beverage does Cox drink that keeps him off the field?

I do think based on how we ended the season (in the playoffs) that right now, Mukuamu would come in at slot and Bland would go outside if anything happened to one of the starting corners. If Lewis comes back healthy, he'd probably be the fourth corner. Joseph will have to prove that he deserves to be in front of either.
