I think safety is our weakness on defense but I do agree if our front is healthy with Gary, Smith, Van Ness, Inagbare as rotational players it’ll shorten the field for opposing offenses and help the safety position.

I'm just not sure if Joe Barry is the guy. He's never been the guy anywhere in his career it seems, but he runs the type of defense that Shanahan et al like and so that's the big reason he's there. The player talent is undeniable, but I'm just worried about Barry.
