[QUOTE="brandon2348, post: 552136, member: 7094"] Well blown coverage's and balls going right through our safeties hands for TD's have killed us way more then a few 15 yard penalties for a big hit that wakes everybody up and gives receivers "alligator arms." Obviously the rules have changed but it's football and there will always be a place or time in a game for a big hit. Sometimes it's about setting the tone and getting those diva receivers thinking. As far as Dix it's a hype show and it has nothing to do with the fact that he cant hit hard. Everyone that argues with me about the safety position and what TT should do talks of a single high safety like what the team had with Nick Collins which would be great. Problem is Dix isn't that guy and not even close to the athlete Collins was. Nowhere near the explosiveness. Yeah he played at Bama and well coached but he is maxed out. Can anyone name one Bama DB that has done anything in recent years or reached the hype potential? Can anyone name an Alabama DB that did nothing for the Packers? I can. In fact he was a safety. George Teague. At the end of the [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1995_NFL_Season']1995 season[/URL], he was traded to the [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanta_Falcons']Atlanta Falcons[/URL] for a conditional 7th round draft choice, after not producing according to his draft selection. Dix wont be there at 21 anyways so I don't have to worry about TT drafting him. The only player I think worth trading up a couple spots for is CJ Mosley. Were better off drating a mid to late round safety or corner that has a high ceiling and developing him into this single high safety. [/QUOTE]
