Michael also does a great job of setting up the DBs, ala Shaun Alexander. It takes extra feel for the position to be able to do that instinctively. I liked Turbin, and didn't see the need for the pick, but I don't think we added a 3rd back, I think we upgraded our backup, and depending on how contracts play out, may have landed our future at the position.
I like the Priest Holmes comparison. If Michael continues down that path, he will beat out Turbin for the (eventual) 1 spot, IMO. Thanks for bringing this name back. I've not heard Priest's name since (probably) his retirement and it's a name that should be remembered. He was deadly.
