Great examples, especially Darrell Green. Will the new rules have an effect on who we now consider great secondary players and for how long?
I agree we MUST upgrade our secondary, just wondering as time passes with these new rules will we see a strong secondary not as necessary as a front 7 that can apply strong QB pressure. I know I'm kinda getting off the original subject here (how much longer Surtain has in his tank) but because of the rule changes maybe a 2nd tier DB will be as good as a top CB and save the premier guys for the line and backers.
