Re: Training Camp
EDC has talked about Stephens more than once. He has said he would be playing FS. There is no good reason for him to dwell on it one way or the other. Before the draft, scouts were saying he has played all over the secondary, but is naturally suited as an FS. Elliott is not an FS - that is not where his value lies. We don't have an FS, unless it is Stephens. You don't intelligently spend a third round pick on a defensive back to be your fifth outside CB. Stephens is not competing with Averett or Jimmy. Our own Shade Raven, bless him, a former Safety IIANM, has commented extensively on Stephens's tape at FS in this forum.
As GWNR noted, Stephens played FS at OTAs. And had a pick.
As time goes on, everyone should be able to figure this out."Flacco is driving the ball in that wind....."

Re: Training Camp
.............. the oline last year was patchy and was not the greatest at pass pro. although ranked high but did not farewell. bozeman wasn't good, Phillips got torched at times in the playoff game. in fact overpowered that side Zeitler is at. i still don't know why bozeman gets the nod at starting and now at center?. now i can see why for bozeman or mekari starting but cmon

Re: Training Camp
The first year post Yanda can’t be understated. You don’t just flawlessly move on from losing a hall of fame guard and plug that hole with an inexperienced player. All things considered they could have been a lot worse, but this year’s line is going to let LJ take that next step in the passing game. Not really concerned about the oline they’ve definitely addressed it.

Re: Training Camp
Yep, I remember EDC comments on Stephens and like EDC said he'd defer to the coaches. I totally agree w/ EDC and Hortiz about Stephens skillset. He's a rare athlete, the most similar player I can think of is Patrick Peterson with his size at the position. He's a lot thicker then most DBs. And he chose to switch from RB to DB. (Probably a smart decision in the long run IF he makes it. DBs, especially CB make more then RBs).
It seems like the coaches thus far have been playing Stephens more at CB then at FS. (Not saying Stephens hasn't played S in camp)
But at least from the OTAs and mini-camp reports I read/heard Stephens was at CB.
He's definitely a players i'll be interested in when it comes to training camp.
I'll be very interested where he's used CB/FS...KR/PR? And what unit 1st/2nd/3rd etc."Those corners...and those safeties are going to be one-on-one... and we got to make them pay for it," Harbs
