I agree with this part... but just shuffling the deck and demoting someone, while keeping him on staff and failing to rid yourself of the real problem (Jones) is never going to solve anything. bb1 and GCJenks 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Move Biggie over, put Sankey in the middle. Our QB may be more injury risk sure...But If our QB went don I thik as a team we could weather that storm a heck of a lot better than the Argos...who basically have 2 guys with zero experience Sankey....meh if he was solely used as a traditional old school MLB and never strayed from inside the tackles other than pursuit of plays outside his responsibility...run stuffing gap filling kinda guy But a trio of Biggie at WIL..Sankey in the middle and Wilson at SAM...and yest he could handle SAM would be a nice trio for sure Edited August 1, 2023 by Booch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we used him in a Barrin Simpson/Aarron Brown type role...between the tackles snuffing out the run and patrolling the middle flat for slants and crossers...where he just needs to be there...BA could be BA.... wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 1, 2023 Report Share Posted August 1, 2023 Could easily fit Sankey in and really make use of the nationalized American with Bighill. Our group of LBs have consistently missed that solid B to B guy to read and scrape to the ball. Why Hall compensates with run blitzes or playing Gauthier at middle and Bighill at WIL where he’s more suited.

Prob best in the league...thats why I think we could slide him in at SAM and be better than ever there we've sorely misswd Wilson as a whole on defense....getting him back is huge....Same with Rose...I can see it elevating some guys play too as they will feed off their enthusiasm Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
