1st Team : James Gayle, Jack Tyler, Antone Exum
3rd Team: Andrew Miller, Derrick Hopkins, Kyshoen Jarrett
Not terrible, I feel they disrespect Kyle Fuller by not making him at least 3rd team.

Dammit they put Gayle on the first team. I think he totally deserves it but love how motivated he's been since being snubbed. Someone needs to get them to take him off so he will mash.
Gonna mash anyway.
I love Kyle Fuller, but I am worried that he will struggle with his transition to boundary. Boundary requires much more man and deep third coverage responsibilities, and Kyle struggled with those last season.
I'm curious as to why they didn't put Kendall there. Kendall is clearly the more talented of the two in terms of coverage. Plus, it would allow them to put Kyle at Nickel/Whip when they bring in a 3rd corner.
Maybe they were just unprepared for how quickly Kendall would pick everything up. I wonder if they could do it over again, if they wouldn't try Kendall out at Boundary.
I'm with you on the 2nd point. Boundary has been the spot for our most trusted/experienced CB because of the left-on-an-island nature of the position. No way a Freshman gets penciled in at BC before practice starts.
Also, didn't Exum and Fuller17 swap back and forth between BC and FC last season, with Fuller17 finishing the year at BC? So that means Fuller17 not only has overall experience on Fuller11, but experience at that position.
