[QUOTE="Sky King, post: 609166, member: 7171"] Well, that's one way of looking at it. But there are three contenders in the mix that you may have overlooked. Joey Thomas and Nate Palmer were on IR and Bradford was red-shirted. Quid pro quo. Since most folks around here had little regard for the three that are now gone, and that their loss has been claimed to be addition by subtraction, at worst I would call it a tie. Now, add Ryan to the balance and it is, shall we say, a little more hopeful? But it's not quite accurate to say that he did not address the situation at all. He did. He just didn't load-up at the position, and on that I would fully agree that is a concern. TT totally ignored the Safety position two years ago and the results were not pretty. He made up for it last year principally with HHCD and releasing the previous year's starter. One guy drafted at the position. That was it. Hyde and a healthier Richardson pitched-in, too. The gain dramatically outweighed the loss. None of us know exactly what TT and MM have up their sleeves but it appears that they may have modified the basic Safety improvement plan from the year before. That amended plan relies heavily on a single newcomer, plus improvement from within. Whether or not it works as successfully as it did the year before is another matter. It's a roll-of-the-dice since there appears to be little to no margin for error. But I'll take this year's ILB roll-out over last year's any day. [/QUOTE]
