Basically. What I talked about was flexibility and coverage skills. You may not care about the NFL, but what happens up there trickles down to the college level, and that's where the game is going for Safeties. When I wrote "size/wingspan," it had nothing to do with intimidation or hitting ability. It had to do with the ability to cover space and cover space in tight areas (play big). This is why defensive coaches look for Corners with impressive wingspans.
Your last paragraph is exactly the point. I agree with every single word. If you look at the pre-FSU analysis, you'll see the seam as our biggest weakness. Why? Lack of range.
We sometimes disagree, but that was an excellent post, PMC.
