If they are supposed to be interchangeable then Adams is more of a fit, but maybe they change if they draft Hooker who knows just don't want him anywhere near the line of scrimmage.

Byard would likely play high FS if Adams is drafted and SS if Hooker is drafted, the good thing is he can do both Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmeade- Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Single high safety is more difficult to find then a SS. Byard has show on the NFL level he can excel playing a SS role, but He really hasn't been given the opportunity by DLB to prove he can play as a single high safety.

CaliTitan3518 Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Hooker in the middle of the field would improve our defense a lot. I like the idea of having Adams and Byard being interchangeable but I think Byard is a far better SS. Plus having the middle of the field covered makes our corners so much better.

Jonboy Posted March 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 What's interesting about Byard is he was more of a FS in college and had quite a few picks, IIRC. He started out the year doing mostly that for us and as the year went on, he played more SS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooker is horrible at taking angles in the run game. He would be a liability in run D. He is a pure centerfielder and would be best on pass downs.......

The reason why is he can do both and we do not have a physical S. That is why I want Adams and not Hooker. Hooker is horrible against the run. Byard and Adams would be dynamite duo. Byard needs to play FS and Adams SS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmeade- Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Hooker isn't horrible against the run. Bongo doesn't like Hooker in order to pump his lsu prospect. Take off your purple shaded glasses off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bongo59 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Hooker is horrible on run fits because he is inexperienced.......I like his pass skills......I could see him playing slot CB his rookie year until he is trained how to stop the run.......it is the one spot he really is like a four rounder.

Bongo59 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 S have to be able to do both well......Hooker is elite in the pass game and remedial in the run game. You have to know that when you draft him. Adams is elite in both. Tape shows it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
