Dude, we get it that Arnold is your favorite, but there is a really good reason Ricks to his starting spot as soon as he was healthy. If Ricks returns, he will start all year with Kool-aid across from him and Arnold will battle with Earl Little next spring.

If Ricks comes back could easily see Arnold moving back to safety with Branch, Battle, and Hellams probably leaving.

I agree on Arnold. He was always in position just couldn't make the play every time.

If Arnold doesnt have a spot on the field something is wrong

He clearly isn't ready, but more power to him.

Sounds like a guy that is gone
And I think he is in a fantastic position to sneak into the top 30 picks if he comes back and stays heathy
Right now he’s a late round guy, which is cool too

Really hope that Ricks comes back. Also think that Arnold slides over to safety.

How about putting Ricks at safety?
Probably where he needs to be anyway.

He’s gone and could end up a free agent. They always listen to some agent or family member filling them FOS.

Wow. That is a seriouly lame take. Ricks strength is bump-and-run/ press-man. How exactly would he play press-man from safety?

Easy. Press the man flat footed as he runs by, a la Tennessee game plan 2022.

You don't watch FILM at all because if you did you would know Ricks isn't good at press man coverage vs decent receivers.

Ricks is the best cover corner. He didn't get tested because his coverage is good.
Just by looking at him, he is the prototypical shutdown corner. Looks like he was made in a lab to play corner.

I’m sure his measurables will get him drafted but definitely could have improved his stock next year.

He made a bad decision... could have really improved his stock in 2023 and gotten a much bigger rookie contract, but I wish him well. He'll definitely get drafted... guessing 3-4th round.

Do you really watch film on our players? Like have a click remote where you sit around and study the team? Is this a hobby or just for fun? Do you take the info to someone or just post about it?
I’m not trying to be an arse, just curious when I see people say “do you watch film?” Are you really sitting around watching game film all day?

Arnold was a liability this year.
