the labels I think can be dropped in this instance...

2 pretty great all around safeties... better for confusing offenses...

I really like the sound of this!!! Keep them all guessing!!!

no.... la ron is a great coverage guy... i understand he never gave up a td in his college carreer... and taylor is a frreaking linebacker...

BUT... taylor can cover if that's what he's trying to do, and Landry looks good blitzing with all that speed... so I'm sure he'll be using them both for both positions...

The labels are back! And we're gonna love 'em!

Hey, maybe that can be their nickname: The Labels.

Look they are both fast so it really doesn't matter much. In GW's Defense I don't believe that there is a difference between the two. He does the same but different things with both. What I have noticed is that in his defense there are 11 football players and they all pretty much do everything, and that means play defense.

Well, except for last year. Last year they did everything but play defense.

Also, I think what most people expected after drafting LL is that we wanted to have two players who could be interchangeable and keep defenses guessing. It appears, after GW's comments, that that is not exactly the case. We will in fact see more of ST patrolling the deep part of the field, and see more of LL up close to the line of scrimmage, that's why he is differentiating their positions clearly, something he didn't do last year. I think what we may have seen last year with Sean, is that he is better suited playing with the ball in front of him. I sense that his apparent drop in coverage ability was perhaps more a result of him having to do things he is not best suited for. LL frees him up to cover ground as the play unfolds and make plays in the air. Of course, they will not be predictable because both can do a lot of things, but their roles are already being outlined. The real unpredictability factor is going to come from who's blitzing and who's covering out of the remaining players not named Sean. With LL up close to the line, you don't know what he's going to be responsible for: Blitz? Cover the TE or RB? Run support? Drop out on a WR while a CB blitzes the edge? His versatility will open up the defensive playbook. That, and the fact that we'll have head hunters on both levels behind the line of scrimmage, is what will keep our opponents up at night.

I think that you may have their roles reversed a little. If the skins are going to put a safety in the box it should be Taylor not Laron.
