At least compared to his ability When he plays inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind him out there, He has the speed to get open and runs nice enough routes that it'll make him hard to cover basically anywhere. He'll be inside a few times though.

Dressler will see passes inside don't worry. ediger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Harris' own presser today, it sounds like he's good to go. O'Shea said they want Flanders on the 46 (and assumedly the 42) not only as RB insurance but also for his special teams play.

Floyd Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 Love our starting linebacker core Why is Randle not at boundary? Why put Dressler at WR and Adams at SB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people have said this already, but remember this is just a depth chart. It doesn't accurately display where guys at WR and CB are going to be lined up. Dressler will play slot, Randle will flip sides (I would think following carter around). Lapo is not a guy who's going to lock in receivers to a single spot.

I think what we are doing is using smith to play under dressler. This can create a lot of miss matches and openings for smith. We used to do this with milt (and other teams like edm and mtl have done this too) Playing 2 strong pass catchers beside each other heavily limits the double cover ability. If they do it, it leaves gaping holes and a lop sided defense. Arland bruce, robert gordon and a few others really made a good living of this. It also opens up screens to one side, delay hand offs like a counter trap, and end arounds. Tracker and IC Khari 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adams was at SB all camp, so it makes sense that he stays there. Obviously they feel good about having him in the slot. From what O'Shea said in his presser, our secondary won't officially have boundary HB and CB. They'll have certain guys on certain guys. mbrg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
