I'm not sure about Rapp yet. I don't think he's a bad player I just wonder about his fit in the scheme.
I feel questions on his fit and injury history are why he was passed up last year.
That's a good question. He was drafted to play Wade's defense, which called for him playing the LB/SS role in the proverbial "box". Then we went to Staley who favored a high free safety, which Fuller stepped in at, and JJ was already in place at SS. If Morris is going to be using cover-2, that calls for both safeties playing more in coverage.
Rapp's typically more of a run supporting safety as opposed to a coverage guy, so it will be interesting to see how they use him, or if he can adapt.
