I think you're right that he could've benefited from a move to safety as his biggest strength was tackling and it would also hide his weaknesses.  I mean... it's not like we need a safety or anything.

I just wonder if he doesn't have it between the ears to play safety. A safety typically has to make a lot more checks and reads than a CB. CBs tend to be the better athletes, but safeties tend to need to be smarter football players.

Won't disagree with what you said about playing safety, but I have no idea of the mental capacities of Worley.  However, his alma mater is not known for producing scholar athletes.

Seymour, ugh. The only people who mention Seymour are people who didn’t watch the games and just hated Worley because of DG. Worley needed to be replaced, but unless Elder is way better than expected we have to get a new starter at CB and S.

There's a reason why Worley was temporarily benched for Seymour. No Seymour wasn't great by any means, but he wasn't a huge dropoff from Worley simply because a huge dropoff from Worley is practically impossible on an NFL roster.

You really think Rudolph needs a WCO?

Mayock called him the best longballer in this year's draft. That makes me think Coryell.

I was not under the impression he had a cannon--no deep outs etc.  Maybe I am wrong, but he seemed like a QB with average are strength in college.  I need to do more homework before sticking to that---did not know Mayock said that.  Maybe this is where I get my supposition:

Bottom Line

Pocket quarterback with good size who has shown consistent improvement as a passer. Rudolph is more of a downfield, play-action passer than a quarterback who can win with precision and arm strength. He's a capable field reader who has the ability to operate with timing which will be important since his arm can be dull at times. Rudolph could be an early backup with the potential of becoming an average to below average starter in the league.  (NFL.com)

Yeah, I'm just speculating as to why we wouldn't have considered a move to safety. It just seemed pretty obvious to me that Worley's measurables and skill set seemed to fit better at safety than at CB so I have to think that there has to be some reason why we wouldn't have considered it given our need at safety.

Yeah, I think he had two good deep ball WRs not that he was necessarily good at throwing the deep ball. Go and watch some James Washington highlights. He's catching a ton of those deep balls in heavy traffic and a lot of them require him to make some major route adjustments or slow down to wait for the ball. The slants in particular are on the money.

      Tom Pelissero: Ejiro Evero name to watch when coaching cycle commences

      By SteveSmithTD89 · Posted

      Respectfully, I completely disagree. Last year we were:  32nd in Sacks. 32nd in Turnovers.  32nd in Rushing TDs allowed  29th in Scoring.  We were absolutely atrocious on defense last year and that was with a full stable of weapons in Derek Brown, Frankie Luvu and Brian Burns that played all 17 games.  Using yards per game as a metric to guage our success lacks the context that because our offense was so inept teams were not driving the length of the field, they were starting at their 40-50 yard line.  This year, our Defense ranks:  31st in Sacks. Tied for 19th in Turnovers  31st in Rushing TDs allowed 32nd in Scoring  His defense fails to get pressure, fails to turn the ball over and fails to stop the run. Three things you absolutely have to do to be successful in the NFL.  Denver meanwhile has not missed a beat without him.  If another team wants to hire him as a HC and the Panthers get two 3rds for it I'll wish him the best and pack his bags myself.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Ah, the ol Cam Newton hating.  I will give you credit, the week of pretending to be a Daniel Jones super fan is a very clever way to disguise your hatred of Cam.
