Agreed. Also interesting to see Alex Morris third on that depth chart.

I guess we'll have to see on the field what that actually looks like.

Maybe some of our coaches can help explain @GMG24 @MeanGreenTexan

I could be wrong but I think FS is Field Safety and BS is Boundary Safety.  Typically teams that flip field and boundary rely on their field guy to be much more of a coverage guy where the boundary safety is more of a tackler then coverage guy (has to be able to do both very well). 

It sounds like the Rush spot is an OLB who will be on the LOS coming off the edge more times than not (typically your bigger LB's who can't cover in space great).  

It sounds like the Sam is going to be asked to be down around the LOS in the Nickel spot but not a traditional Nickel I think it will be more of a tackling OLB type position.  I would be surprised if Morris doesn't take that spot soon out of those names listed I think he's the most physical of them all.  We have to remember not all of this is based on the better football player/athlete sometimes those guys struggle learning the playbook and playcalls and that is a big deal.  

I have no real knowledge of this defense but based on the bodies they have at certain spots those are my best semi-educated guesses.
