He played better at SS, but that is Battle's spot IMO.
Emmanwori has the speed and range to play FS and he has the smarts and instincts to boot no matter how big he is.
Agree on Stone's days being numbered and if we get Emmanwori the writing is on the wall that Stone will be cut.
Disagree on Battle, he impresses me every time he plays pretty much. He knows how to be in the right spot and he is a decent tackler and
has good instincts, it was stupid of Lou to bench him in the first place. If we don't go with Emmanwori or he gets picked ahead of us in the
first, I bet we go LB like Jalon Walker or Jihad Campbell for the Viper position or an EDGE like Shemar Stewart.
I would like Nolen or Grant too, but maybe the coaches think we are okay at DT if Kris Jenkins and McKinnley can grow into themselves
behind BJ Hill and now Slaton.
I agree that Dax was playing inside much better before his misfortune. Safety certainly seems like it needs to be addressed somehow.
To the naked eye Battle seemed to play better in his rookie year. I didn't look at any numbers and last years defensive schemes were atrocious, so that probably didn't help him much. I mean, if Stone shows his Ravens form and Battle has grown then life is good and we're just shooting the shit, worried about nothing. Lol.. Fingers crossed.
I still like Sunsets idea though. Too thin in there not to go get another.
