You think Winfield makes the transition to play his dad's position? I can't help but see him at corner in the future. His pops was a criminally underrated stud and they have a similar build and playing style.
 
Can Delpit man FS? I know little about him.


It's a good question because I don't think we really know the answer yet. I think he can just based off some of the things I've seen him do out of C2 in terms of range - but didn't really have anything to do with the play. He does most of his work as a blitzer in the slot, or a robber in C1, or the flat player in C3.
 
I'm really happy to see James Wiggins having come this far.

I remember talking with you about him had to be over a year ago.

Yeah he’s a freak - 4.4 speed, 37” vert, 11’ broad jump, benches 405 & squats 675.








 
James Wiggins is having surgery this morning to repair his ACL and is out for the year. Tough break for the kid.
 
Just had to bump this as I saw Delpit this weekend vs. UF. Never really watched LSU that seriously but my god this kid was everywhere.

Really enjoyed watching him play.
 
So are we still considering Simmons as a safety? Either way is he a scheme fit in Miami?
 
I see him listed as LB on many boards. Haven’t watched him play much myself, but I’m guessing Simmons plays a hybrid role?
 
Simmons plays a hybrid role. I think he’s a perfect fit for a positionless defense and the role coaches had for Minkah.
 
Homer alert!!

Simmons is the best off ball defender in the draft and only Young is a better defensive player.
