I will save you the time....

"BB we are getting towards the end, tough match-up this week against the Giants. Eli Manning is the best QB I have ever seen and really the Giants have no flaws...."
"Looking at the tape there were some good things but it was far from perfect, we really have a lot of work to do get ready for the Jets in week 1..."
"Tough time of year we have to get below 75 by Tuesday, it is never easy..."
"Samuel is a good player but he is behind. It is not like he can step in and play tomorrow, some of the other players have 3+ weeks or practice. If it was that easy we wouldn't have camps..."

BB on the Brady baby "What a fanstastic event! I wish it would get more publicity. Our entire team talks about it all day. The only other things we like to discuss more is the the Michael Vick saga and Barry Bonds....
I asked McDaniel to design a new play called "Brady Baby". Tom is free to live whenever he wants to ensure his end of the parenting bargain is being met. I can't wait to see the pictures..."

Meriweather's sure tacking really stood out last week. With Samuel, Hobbs and Gay at CB I imagine Meriweather will get more time at Safety now although we're kind of stacked there for this year with Harrison, Wilson, Sanders and Meriweather - not complaining about that depth, of course.

Wilson is apparently hurt a little bit. The depth falls off pretty quickly at FS, Merriweather is the long-term answer and personally I think he could even take reps in game 1 and be ok.

Agreed with what you say across the board. I don't expect Geno back unless he takes a deal very friendly to the team. We know we can't count on him being healthy and I have a feeling Meriweather will be better than him soon as Wilson's instincts as a Safety have always been questionable to me having been a CB through college.

Default Meriweather most affected

3 solid corners means that it will be tough for Meriweather to see the field at CB, and I think we need to get his speed and athleticism on the field. With Wilson appearing to suffer yet another leg injury while chasing a WR, and Sanders better suited for SS in the long run, FS looks like the opening. Unfortunately, he has been training exclusively at CB, so it would take a switch and new learning curve for him to appreciate the responsibilities.
