Message: [QUOTE="blizz, post: 3066854, member: 4252"] Will just chirp here on the concern over DB's. I think 5 and even 6 DB's per class are going to be the norm going forward. It's important to remember that nickel sets are really base defenses nowadays. And a db today, especially the nickel or star and strong safety are used in hybrid roles where they are more like linebackers than traditional db's. This year's class, I see alot of versatility in the db's so far. Bell and Labrosse both stand out as just ridiculously athletic guys who are versatile enough to play 4 out of the 5 spots. Again, how they develop will determine where they eventually fit. I think that's the right approach, select for attributes and get the best athletes you can, develop them, and fit will work itself out once you have some depth established. [/QUOTE]
