if grimm never got hurt we would have made the playoffs and would have smashed the lions.

i kept seeing a rookie safety blow coverage with bad angles, and blown assignments.

Hopefully he is bulking up some so he can take the pounding with the style of play. He can’t change his style, then he wouldn’t be that good.

Kind of like Bob Sanders. Guy was a ebast and made INdy’s run defense respectable…. but in the end he was short lived due to constant injuries.

Tanard is clearly the best choice to go play center field, deep halves, thirds, or quarters while still being stout against the run. Grimm is a monster against the run, but I’m not exactly brimming with confidence if we have a speedy wideout going deep to Grimm’s zone. I agree with you guys that SS seems like a more natural position for Grimm, he can still make his plays at the line without having AS much coverage assignments deep

I too believe that Cody’s future is at SS. He will need to bulk up and harden up a bit to make the transition most effective, but I like his experience playing FS helping him to become a better SS (he was a LB in college so playing in the box should come natural for him).

Whether the starting secondary in the future is Grimm and Tanard or Grimm and Black or Black and Tanard (or perhaps Asante becomes the starter at SS), I like what I see from our safeties.

Cody is great and him coming back healthy to compete will make our DB core pretty deep.

I love how they erased the notes in the back on Brees! Someone caught that after the first few videos.

I love how Cody plays, and cant wait for him to get back in action. BUT if Tanard comes back he is the better FS be should start. On the other hand I think Cody would be a much better SS than Jones.

Ideally id like to See Tanard at FS and Cody at SS, with Ahmad competing for a job in a year or two.

Grimm surprised me with his play last year and will continue to impress. With Grimm, Jones, Asante, Lynch, Black, and maybe T-Jack in the mix, plus Anderson and Harris on the roster, Who stays? Who plays? Good problem to have, but still a problem.

Joe, if you look at some of the numbers .. for a few games the Bucs Run Defense was actually above average .. They were actually good .. I have directv and have all the Bucs 30 min short cuts saved ..

Cody Grimm is a MONSTER.
