The Real Tony G. Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Open competitions everywhere right? Only position with a good starter and good backup that could be an upset. Really liked the way Ish played down the stretch and Quinn will never in his life have him 1 on 1 deep so no worries there. Moore has been good but I think Ish needs at least 50% of the snaps at SS while they split time as the nickel LB/3rd S this year too.

quickzero Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) When you say they split 50 percent of the snaps at SS, to me that means Moore will still be on the field at FS. They both along with southward and a draft pick will be getting plenty of reps at all those positions you mentioned including FS. I love the potential of our DBs. But Moore will not get beat out. Willy Mo will always start for this team barring an injury of course. Edited April 9, 2015 by quickzero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSalmon Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Ish is depth. He's noce in that aspect. But he's not a big hitter and he's certainly not a ballhawk with range that we could move to FS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keys Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 If you can play one safety then you can play the other safety. Whether your position is SS or FS sometimes the safeties on the field have to switch responsibilities based on the quick adjustments made before the snap. I would want to see our two best safeties on the field at the same time, and unless we draft a superstar safety that's going to be Moore and Ishmael together on the field at the same time. We do need depth and competition though, I agree with that 100%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do need depth and competition though, I agree with that 100%.I don't believe that if Quinn even remotely implements a "Seattle-like" 43 under here. In that defense, each safety has a clear profile. The SS is a big hitting, often used as a "rover/LB" type near the line of scrimmage and has length and bulk. The FS is literally a "centerfielder" roving guy who ain't afraid to tackle but has great range and speed. Alford almost fits the FS role to a T if they move Dez to cb. Ish is neither long, nor a big hitter. Depth guy..,maybe 3 safety looks on occasion...don't see his fit.A healthy Willymo is a great candidate at SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Since1990 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 % chance Ish beasts out Moore = 5%% chance Ish wins due to a Moore injury = 75% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sui_Generis Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 0%. Moore makes more money. 100% chance the injury bug will help get Ish some playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FentayeJones Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I like Ish but he is not a better player than Willie Moe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon Man™ Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Barring injury, I think they will split reps - probably 70 WM/30 Ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBridgez Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Willy Mo, as long as he's healthy, will continue starting. He plays like chancellor when he can get himself on the field. Dan Quinn has already spoken to WillyMo and told him that he is exactly what he is looking for in a player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moore is an attacking safety its always what he was best at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
