    Of course because the tracking would change depending on down and distance. 1st down alignment stats have always been the norm when trying to gage a particular tendency league wide in respect to style and philosophy. Everything between San Fran and Houston tracks. Shanny has the playmakers to make it a lethal offense and we are about to catch up.

    They are betting that Okudah is better suited to this defensive scheme which is more straightforward for cornerbacks.
    No way they don’t draft a corner in the top three rounds, though, right?

    I'm sure there are plenty of black men in South Carolina with that accent. I do love a southern drawl. Not gonna lie.

    That does sound like a different voice on that second clip. Not sure if it was fake, with someone accentuating that drawl. LOL

    I bet they take the best player available, regardless of whether it's a DL, WR, or CB if someone great slides down, and it's a steal. We could use all 3.

    Agree. Still depends a bit on FA unless we are through. If we sign Settle, DT takes a back seat. Not that he is great, but we just need run stuffers at this point and I think that is easier to find than multi-dimensional DTs.

    Settle played 17 games last year and had 9 solo tackles. Gross.

    didn't realize that. Sounds like Armstead or bust. We really have 3 big holes to fill DT, CB, Safety. Second tier needs are WR, OT, LB.
