Brantley
Brown
OJ
Lucas
O connor
Poyser
Patteron
Karnley

Will all play a lot
They will figure it out

That's correct...and I'd add Mack to this group bringing the nbr to 9 that will play as injuries are bound to happen.

The good problem to have is the talent in the secondary group being much better going into the Spring than all last season.

Mack going to be out for a long time. I certainly would maintain expectations on when he can return this year.

 

[Bender]

We got nobody capable of playing deep centerfield. Man...

 

[AUcane]

After what Patterson put on film this season he should be nowhere near the field next season. His play is reminiscent of Gurvan Hall.

Round hole/square peg. He's not a centerfield type safety - nowhere close. He is a closer to the box safety that is an excellent tackler.

 

[PimpCane]

Get the best DB we can get in the spring portal regardless of position and then put the best 5 on the field.

 

[Coach Macho]

Zaquan needs to be close to the box if you're gonna get the most out of his abilities. This means he needs to be at Nickel or boundary Safety. He'll be asked to play the run, play the flats and even blitz occasionally from either one of those spots. Having him play up-top all game when he's never done that in his entire career is a travesty and a waste of his best asset.

 

[MedleyCane]

Anyone going to coach these safeties and CBs?

Yes.
It's a lengthy review process with Mario.
Mario has 3 candidates and he is on round 4 which involves artistic performance which constitutes
singing, playing an instrument or doing an interpretive dance routine addressing concepts of press vs zone coverage. Mirabal, JT, Beard and Mike Rumph are the judges with Hi/Low scores tossed.

His game doesn’t translate to college well. Let’s see what the new coaches can get out of him

I really think it was the scheme. I think he'll be much better this year.

 

[CANESCANES]

Lucas could slide to safety with his size

The last adv who must not be named loved making guys do play to their weaknesses instead of their strengths so they get better lol

 

[3FW]

People who think Damari won’t be on the field somewhere are likely going to be wrong.

 

[grover]

Love love love the DB room situation. Up to the new DC and DN coach to fit the pieces into place.

Wish we had as much talent to work with at LB and DT tbh.

 

[Supacane954]

Our new Dc like playing three safeties anyway i think Zaquan plays close to line of scrimmage and MLB on passing Down like Jabrill peppers

I don't disagree fully...
But I think he's a "scheme fit" guy.

If you're playing a ton of Cover-3 and Zaquan is your guy who's rolling down, I think he can be productive.

 

[FrancisSawyer]

Was actually thinking about him as a FS.

I prefer him much more at strong safety.

 

[FrancisSawyer]

You think he’s physical enough? I was thinking some ball skills of a corner and range as a fs. I know you have never really been high on him, but we could really use the help.

To answer your question, yes he is certainly physical enough. His physicality is what really stood out about him to me, especially in run support.

I'm not @Memnon but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Because there's no chance a year in the system along with another spring and fall camp has ever helped a kid to progress.

You dont just give up on players because they had a rough true freshman season not many of them hit the field balling immediately, he can improve

Dang! What's his injury again?
