I doubt Reid moves to SS though as he is a bit frangile in the concussion department and is a pretty good FS. People are down on him but he's been learning new defenses each of the past two years. If they can settle in and make it a bit easier for him he will be fine at FS, which would free up Ward for slot. Redmond may compete for a starting CB job with Robinson and Brock. I actually like the DBs they have--good versatility, speed, size and experience. Many were rookies or second year players last and struggled, with an easier scheme they may blossom!
Yeah, Lynch already said Ward is moving to FS so for the box S in this defense it's going to be between Tartt and Reid. My money is on Tartt for that Kam Chancellor role and Ward for the Earl Thomas role. But it's on Reid in his final year here.
Ward was a great playmaking safety in college. The fact that he learned CB makes me believe he'll be a fantastic FS. Sorry no hooker I guess. Tartt blew up beast mode so he can hit. The pieces are there. Reid can still play a role, maybe, closer to los
