Is Eugene a S or a CB right now?

I know he was mostly the Dime and for all intents and purposes was playing the TM7 freshman roll of blitzing DB, but I don't know that he showed enough in coverage this season that he can really slide into the Nickel.

The Jalens will be fine, but I'm mildly concerned with who takes on the Nickel and Dime spots.

Im looking forward to Martin starting at S, he's going to be great, and his limited snaps it seems like he can cover. LSU really missed Brandon Taylors ability to actually cover people man to man. That made it much easier on Chavis IMO.

We also missed him as the guy making the calls in secondary, and the level head that kept everyone as grounded as they could be.

Secondary will be good. Jalen Collins and Jalen Mills as starting corners. Ronald Martin and Craig Loston at safety. Micah Eugene as a blitzer, Corey Thompson as a true backup safety.

All that plus we'll choose two backup corners from about 6 or 7 options - Thomas, Raymond, Holmes, White, Jefferson, Robinson, maybe Brazil if he doesn't work out on offense, and maybe Priest Willis if he signs.

My dream is that we sign Priest and he and Tre'Davious White become the backups this year, with Willis starting by year's end.

We then move one or more of the other guys inside to safety.
