[QUOTE="Bobby Roberts, post: 147040, member: 260"] Actually I disagree. The basic Bates defense, which is what we still run, calls for essentially 2 free safeties. The big DTs are supposed to take up blockers to free up the LBs to do most of what the SS would do and then use the safeties as additional support in coverage. This is why Manuel was such a poor fit for our defense. It is also why another good coverage safety would be a good fit. That being said, Nelson would have been a big reach at #16. My preference would have been to trade down, but TT didn't believe that he got any offers worth taking, so he took the BPA. That just shows his quality in drafting. The best way to build a team through the draft is to do a ton of research to prepare and then pick the BPA irregardless of need. By picking the BPA at our deepest position on the roster (DT), TT demonstrated that he is able to do just that. This is why he has done well in the draft. Now hopefully he has a plan to fill a couple of holes through FA. GO PACK GO!!! [/QUOTE]
