Maybe that's in September, maybe that's November. Who knows? 
He should turn out to be the best safety we've had since Gipson at the very least.

Moses will take more time IMO.

I'm interested to see a LB duo of Moses-Quarterman at the RILB & LILB spots during preseason. Cisco should be good for us, but I view him as more of a SS with Rayshawn Jenkins as the FS

It def could work out that way. They've both played both spots. 
Will just come down to how Chris Ash and Joe Cullen see it I guess. 

Cisco is a bit faster, and he supposedly has a greater wingspan, both of which could lend themselves to the FS spot, but he's in need of development in coverage ability.   How much he's able to develop between now and September will be big. (assuming the knee allows for it) 
Jenkins was labeled a box saftey coming out of school but played FS for the bolts. 

It's also possible you see extra DBs on the field more than we are accustomed. (Daniel Thomas flashing in OTAs) 
While trying to check out Baltimore's scheme I noticed plays where a starting corner and a starting safety were blitzing while two additional safeties dropped deep. If Cullen brings Martindale's tendency to disguise looks and blitz DBs- then interchanging safety roles will be a necessity. 

It's also possible they plan for a rover package for Cisco as he did that at Syracuse. 

Either way - I'm hopeful we won't see one of them just sitting in single-high 70% of the game as we have in recent years.
