Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dantés" data-source="post: 1034013" data-attributes="member: 12283">Why He Will Succeed: Oladapo will establish himself as core ST player and thereby get active on gamedays. He will then be used in specific circumstances that play to his strengths as a box safety, acting as an enforcer in the run game and across the middle of the field in the passing game. He won't get exposed in more difficult coverage situations because he won't be asked to play them. Why He Would Fail: If they try to make Oladapo a full-time starting safety, it's hard to see how it would work. Even in a defense that uses a lot of true free/strong concepts, it's hard to see how he could handle the coverage. My Guess: I think Oladapo will be much like Hopper-- a core ST player who has a specific role on defense but never becomes a full time player. Upside Comp: I suppose there's a world where Oladapo is so good in the box that he becomes a SS/Dime linebacker who is somewhere in the neighborhood of Kyle Dugger.</blockquote>
