Hey guys...you missed the point of the thread. This isn't about whether this unit without Samuel is better or worse than the other championship team's; its about the fact that the last 6 superbowl champs won DESPITE not having great CB groups.
Is it a trend?
Does the predominence of 2 deep safeties NOW make the SAFETY position the new dominant position in the secondary?
Do you now draft the best safety over the best CB?
its questions like that and more, is what I thought the discussion would be about.
I would agree that the relative importance of safeties and cornerbacks has been shifting for years. I would also agree that depth is more importsnt than ever with spread offenses and other innovations.
Still, I don't remember them without 1 top CB and Hobbs is not one.
