But I haven't seen that player in a long time.

They keep saying they'll play them more interchangeably the past two or three offseasons -- but they still call an awful lot of coverages with a single high safety and Wilson showed some pretty ugly angles to the ball from those coverages last year. That's why I'm being a bit harp-ish on the topic. 

I agree with your assertions about the position and the college athletes often being coached at CB rather than true FS. I just think it's still a significant part of the Jags D and I'm trying to discover if I'm missing some strategy beyond Wilson fending off an undrafted rookie (even if the rookie appears promising).

Guess we'll find out in July if camp stays on schedule.
