Quote:Now list who was on the Front 7 and get back to me. All those teams had excellent pass rushers. All of them. You don't need a special FS to win. You do need pass rushers. Also if picked Ramsey would have been picked higher than anyone on that list.

 

Obviously having a good front 7 helps. Don't act like I'm saying it doesn't. But having a great free safety is becoming a position that you need to have a great player that capitalizes in a big way when that pass rush hits home. Those names are a huge indicator of that, and how the game is evolving that way.

 

And especially in Jacksonville's case where the scheme they're trying to replicate quite clearly requires great safety play, it'll be silly for Jacksonville to pass on someone with potential like Ramsey.

 

EDIT: And for the record, the 2006 Colts weren't really that great at rushing the passer. They did have an all-star secondary and Peyton Manning though, I suppose that more than made up for it
