I know about Trovon Reed and it was expected(and 2 years too late) but are there any other possible changes?
Justin Garrett? Rudy Ford? Anybody?

Justin Garrett to Star
Therezie to Corner or Safety
Holsey back to Corner or Safety
It all depends on Jonathan Jones IMO.
If Jones is good enough to win out at cb then we you'll see Therezie at Safety. If not Therezie will play cb with Jones being the first off the bench and HOlsey at Safety.

Holsey's switch depends on how well Moncreif does at Safety.

Robenson Therezie does not need to move to corner unless he strictly plays at nickel back.

Yeah, you gotta think Rudy Ford will be moving back to the McCalebb RB position.

Will be interesting to see what they do with Rudy Ford this spring... probably moves back to RB, but he might still get some work on defense.

Therezie will not switch to Corner. He does not fit what they are looking for in that position physically. He is also somewhat tight hipped hence all the flipping in the past (Safety, RB...)

IMO / what I'd like to see ideally:
- Rudy plays special teams this year, like he did last. He may move to RB next year and take over after Corey Grant leaves, but right now he's not good enough at anything to be a starter.
- Holsey moves to corner and plays opposite Mincey. Jones is the first man off the bench as people get tired/injured. Bessent/Ruffin are the next men up.
Therezie moves to safety. Therezie/Moncrief/Whitehead are our "{true safety" rotation, situationally. Therezie plays second Star/Dime as required (see Holsey last year).
- Garrett moves (returns) to Star. Mackenro Alexander is his nominal backup, but in reality Therezie will move to Star and Moncrief/Whitehead will be left at safety. Therezie being able to play both spots is key here
- Bray moves to the speed slot role and D'haquille takes over his role on the outside.

-Therezie will work some at Safety
-Garrett will work some at Will LB
-Cass and Frost flip positions for a couple weeks
-Rudy will work at CB but may get touches at RB as well

Truitt was one of my favorite signees this year.

Bray is showing out also.

I like all of this. However, I don't think Bessent will see the field. I think we'll see Melton out there before him. He really needs to gain a lot of weight, much less be confirmed that he's actually going to be allowed on the team. I don't think he won't be, but still, nothing is certain yet.

I completely forgot that Melton existed. He didn't thrill when he hit the field last year, but he also only hit the field about twice so IDK what to think about him.
Posted on 3/1/14 at 10:07 pm to AU13
Melton was injured last year, I believe.

If Turner can pick up the defense...stud.
