This is a guy (because of injury) that doesn't get talked about a lot around here, just going back and looking at his highlights and reading some of the scouting reports, Sample is a guy that I expect to benefit the most from our defensive signings. I think he has all-pro potential as a box safety because of his athleticism and big-hit/enforcer playing style. Sample was also a stud in coverage at Louisville, showing fluid hips and natural instincts in the pass game, he has all the makings of a "difference maker" in this scheme, playing the Kam Chanchellor role as an enforcer. I think James upside is bigger because he's more explosive than Kam, the only reason he "fell" to the 4th round was because he only played 1 year at Louisville, however his tape showed a 1st/2nd round talent. If you're a AFC South receiver that primarily runs your routes across the middle of the field, lookout.

I think SS will be a very close watched camp battle.

I wouldn't be shocked at all if Gipson and Sample were the safeties next year, with Cyprien playing as Sample's backup and a nickel/dime linebacker.

If Sample can stay healthy, he should win the starting SS role. I can see Gus using Cyrpien on obvious passing situations as a another linebacker.

Nice knowing there's an All-Pro sitting on the bench...I wish I hadn't run out of my Teal Koolaide.

"potential" 

 

^ That's the word you're ignoring.

LOOKOUT DeAndre !!!

 

Put 10 - 12 pounds on Cyp and move him to linebacker.

 

Odrick - Jackson - Marks - Fowler

            Cyp - Jack - Smith

Prince - Gipson - Sample - House

 

That would be really nice.

I don't think he needs to put on any weight, Deon Bucannon plays mike linebacker for the Cardinals and is 215 lbs, you can get away with that if you have a bunch of space eaters up front, which we do.

Cyp could play the same role than Mark Barron with the Rams.

The next Ronnie Lott, Chammmmmppiioonnshiippppp

Gipson and Sample. Sounds like a law firm.

This dude is jacked

 

A healthy Sample throughout camp is definitely something I am looking forward to.
