Yea to a degree. Thomas and Merriweather as our starters with Doughty and Rambo as backups. Not so sold that we should bee counting on him as the starter right now though.

Merri scares me at FS. I knew Thomas had the talent to start.

we got lucky when he fell to the 4th.

I think Merriweather would have still been playing strong safety.

rambo won the job though, he looked better in camp. so they were planning on rambo sucking and thomas eventually coming in and starting when he was ready?

Actualy rambo won the job because Thomas got injured. Otherwise I think our starters are Thomas and merriweather

 

[deanpet21]

Rambo didnt win anything. They wanted Thomas as a SS in training camp. I think Thomas could have done both so if he didn't get hurt he would of seen the field over Rambo. People on here do not realize how lucky we were to land Thomas in the 4th round.

Thomas had the ability to play both safety positions. He would have been starting at FS last season.
