[QUOTE="TJV, post: 609570, member: 4300"] Random thoughts on this thread: The OP says, “I think [I]there’s a case[/I] [I]for trying[/I] Dix on the perimeter…” so I don’t understand ARodsBelt12 point. The personnel people will do their jobs, and the coaches will coach, but boards like this one are precisely for giving opinions on how they have, or should do their jobs. [I]I know what he[/I] meant but captainWIMM’s statement, “…there is not a single CB on the roster best suited to play on the outside opposite Shields” is wrong. There is one best suited we just don’t know which one, or how well suited he is. ;) The thing that jumped out at me most in this thread was how in the world did Hyde drop to #159 in the fifth round??!! I had assumed it was combine times, but that clearly doesn’t explain it. He played in the Big 10 so it wasn’t a concern about the competition. In another thread someone posted something like, ‘if so-and-so had a higher ceiling he would have been taken higher in the draft’. Hyde is just one of many examples of that not being true. It is a positive that Randall gained that weight and then ran those times at the combine. The issue with him may be how much weight he can sustain throughout a season. Loved the video of Ray – it brought back great memories. Early in his Packers career, it was very apparent Ray played fullback - and LB at Illinois – less apparent later in his career. (BTW, Ray was a QB his freshman season and switched to FB as a sophomore.) [/QUOTE]
