Back end of our D getting taller

[SCP]

Combined we have 15 CBs and Safeties on the current roster and only 4 are under 6' tall. I love Gettleman's philosophy of getting bigger across the board.

Just imagine if we still had Munnerlyn trying to cover Mike Evans...glad we have some guys capable of matching up size wise.

Well, since he was too short to cover Evans, we could always move him to cover Vincent Jackson instead!

As i recall he actually did pretty well against him last year.

Came to make penis joke. They've been made.

 

 

Sigh.

That's the trend in the NFL.  WRs keep getting bigger and it's going to take bigger CBs to match up with them.  The Bucs are going to have three WRs who are 6'5".  The Falcons have 6'3" Julio Jones.  The Saints currently have 4 WRs who are 6'3"+ on their roster.  We added 6'5" Kelvin Benjamin in the draft.  With the way pass interference is called these days, small DBs just don't stand a chance against these monsters in jump ball situations.

I don't remember him getting beat now that you mention it. But I also don't remember how many plays he was on Jackson one on one for.

Munnerlynn somehow played very well for his size yet also played very terrible in general. If he can play in a secondary that can assure he won't get picked on I think he'll be great.

The two DBs we got are also ballhawks, trying to capitalize on all the pressure we get

Losing Captain bumped up our average height.

"Losing" Munnerlyn.............................

 

 

 

 

....OK.  I stopped laughing long enough to both agree with your premise and go back to laughing about what it means to "lose" a Munnerlyn.

 

 

I've said it before, I will say it again...I wish DG was our GM and 50 something rather than 60 something.
