I'm not too worried about Bell but Scott does worry me, just as the jury will be out but its a gamble either way.

Personally, I'd rather give Scott, Hill, and Anderson a chance to show what they can do this season.
Then if things aren't working out, look for a new safety next offseason.
I just hate potentially wasting draft picks just because we haven't seen guys play yet.
TE, RB, CB, OL, and DL seem like higher priorities than safety to me.
I'm game for taking a depth guy on Day 3 to compete with Thomas and Anderson for backup responsibilities though.
