Still hoping for DV, but Sims did seem to show something positive against C. on Black Friday.  Rowe might be challenging to get as he'd still be in season with the Colts.  Shoop seems too similar to Spencer. For a team that's trending younger it may be a better choice to trend toward an up and comer at DC

Assume you are talking coaching staff trending younger.

Looks like Shoop had two number one defense at Penn State and at Mississippi State. Good defense at Vanderbilt also...top 25 only team he didnt do well at was Tennessee 104th for one year...but he followed that up with a number one defense at Miss State. 

I was thinking old retread and avoid but he might be pretty good pick-up. 

I'd take Shoop and maybe one of the younger guys to stay and learn from him as CO DC. 

Problem Bringing In the other young guys or Simms is they are learning the job in a very important year 3. 

Shoop is ****…too old and questionable if he can get it done when the talent is not great. Give me both of the the two young guns and let’s move on.
