Predict the 2014 depth chart
I really want to see us develop a position that is a safety type body that plays like a LB in our system especially our nickel and dime packages. I think it can be something integral when playing these Spread/HUNH teams. Mark Barron done it a lot if you remember back. Maybe its Ronnie Clark, maybe its Hootie Jones, maybe its Keith Holcombe, maybe its Christian Miller, maybe its Bo Scarborough. Whoever it is that is perhaps a change (or simply going back to it) of strategy for playing HUNH teams.
essentially what miami did in the early 80s ... turned safeties into lbs, and lbs into d ends ... course, the opposite effect is that a true power running game can gash a smaller defense ...

yep but it would be less of a drastic transition for us. We wouldn't necessarily be changing our principles at all. And the changes I mentioned we've already done. The changes you mentioned are fairly drastic as they involved breaking down and reforming the famous "bear defenses" of the 70s and 80s (which were built to stop the Veer, Power I, and the Wishbone)
