I have been mulling this over. Just no ideal candidate. Ramsey doesn’t have the range and Brisker is better missilng downwards-forward compared to side to side.

Really no attractive options for a single high safety out there. Not sure there will be come cut downs either.

So perhaps they put the bunny back in the box and don’t take on a lot of single high and go with two deep safeties? Perhaps that would help Brisker and Ramsey out?

They could still bring in another S come cut downs but the odds of a player being able to handle that would be greater?

What say yinz?
 
I'm hoping we get away from the single high man predictable **** that we did for so long.
I would think single high isn’t really a good option for the rooms arguably biggest weakness.
 
At CB, they have JPJ, Dean, Samuel Jr., Ecols, Everette, and Kent. While Ramsey is still listed as CB on the team's website, there is a lot more depth at the position than safety. I'm going to assume that Ramsey will focus on safety.

CB room is looking attractive…
 
Spears-Jennings can absolutely fly.

It would be great to add that athleticism if he can handle the mental aspect of the NFL

His skill set is definitely different than Elliot/Brisker and could be a really high upside FS.

He’s one I’m excited to see play and if the wheels
translate to a roster spot.

Definitely a developmental sleeper. Yeah it would be nice if he could develop at free. I know he was used as a free and in the box in college. Probably ST first. But hoping obviously he shows more than that.
