Are we content with Bell at SS?

[Stringer Bell]

he really helped out our pass defense, but he did hurt the run D a little.

do you guys think he will be our SS of the future, or will the position be upgraded?

 

[SR 7]

they say his run D isnt good but i nevre noticed that.

 

[Motion]

Rather have Landry back there.

 

[12MaN]

Rather have Landry back there.

I second that!

 

[NYinBostonFin]

Rather have Landry back there.

If Quinn isn't on the board, me too.

 

[phinphan4life]

I second that!

I third that! I was already extremely impressed with his play at LSU. But his combine performance blew me away. I'm officially on the draft Laron Landry bandwagon.

 

[Psychosikes]

Landry is a stud, no doubt. I don't think we should use our first on him for two reasons: 1) we spent a first on a safety last year and 2) bell is still young and a playmaker. I wouldn't be opposed to sabby piscatelli in the fourth or even in the third though. He was rock solid for the beavers the last couple of years. I was hoping we could snag him late, but his combine numbers probably will give him late first day consideration. He's kind of like a faster john lynch and would be great to have developing if allen or bell don't work out...

 

[Gunit1]

He's familiar with the type of defense we play and has blazeing speed, but I think we go pass rusher first. With Bowens likely gone and Taylor getting older we really need to consider a pass rushing LB or DE or hybrid DE/LB type.

 

[Stringer Bell]

i dont necessarily disagree with taking a DLineman...i just feel taht today, safety is a position that you have to have a stud at...

just look at the colts, bob sanders completely changed taht team...

 

[Shula Fan]

Bell is good enough to by-pass that position for a few years.

 

[23EmilioVasquez]

Landry over bell if we have shot at him he will start that same year and i would not be suprised if he wins Drookie of the year good feeling about him
i like bell but i think he is more like a back up

:dolphins:

 

[SpencerFS]

Landry is a FS y'all we would have to move Jason Allen to CB which probably wont happen.

 

[Stitches]

I'd take Michael Griffin in the 2nd if he were there, if I needed a SS. Or hope Sabby from Oregon State fell to us in the 3rd round(or Jon Wendling maybe).

I'm sure Landry can play either S position by the way.

 

[DorsalPhin]

Bell can tackle okay, but he's not so hot at play recognition and can take himself out of plays. It's a weakness vs. the pass and run.

Look for R.Hill at SS if J.Allen can lock down the FS spot this time.

Then again, if a DB is taken on draft day 1 or FA, who knows.
