I like the pairing up plan but don't see why Verse and Newton couldn't have worked in that way just as well as Fiske and Verse did. .
And you are right -- no one knows who will be the better pro. But Newton and Turner are pretty similar IMO. Not exactly but closer
to each other than Fiske and Turner.
I think, and this is just my opinion, the loss of Donald caused them to put, and will probably put Turner in Donald's position. And that is where Newton fit best.
If you look of a DL of Turner (DT), Brown (NT) and Newton (DE) you have two similar guys but with Turner (DT), Brown (NT) and Fiske (DE)
you have a guy who steps into play DE who is a bit taller and a lot faster than Newton.
Yes, you could put Newton in Donald's position and Turner at Williams' positon but I don't think that plays to Turner's strengths. he going to be even better
at Donald's position that he was in the position he played last year.
I think it was about fit and also the things Rock talked about
