re: The Defense and Optimism

I'm not sure your question. But a few comments

- If Holmes and Pope moved to defense we wouldn't have enough WRs so Hall would definitely be playing WR. We actually are more pressed for bodies at WR than DB. Anyway, I don't think either would make much noise on defense but I haven't seen much of them so it's just idle speculation. It may depend on how we close this class and where they fall in the WR rotation in the spring
- I'd be pretty damn happy with 2 of Hall, Parker and McGraw (especially the first two)
- Matthews would be an awful linebacker as he's small and doesn't tackle well (insert joke about how he'd fit in perfectly). I'd honestly rather see Honeycutt move but in either case, neither would likely be in the 2-deep and they will be SRs
- Wiggins I haven't seen enough of but I don't think he moves well enough laterally nor is he a quick twitch type that would be a good SAM. I could be wrong on that though. He's a tweener so where he ends up is definitely a question. But afaik, he's never played LB so if we feel he's not a fit in the new world, we may see him head to TJC or something
