Defensive Back Development

Developing defensive backs is crucial to a defensive coordinator's game plan. They are the last line of defense. A player must possess adequate physical capabilities, both mental and physical, as well as discipline. Among the most important attributes, any defensive back can possess is discipline. A strong mentality is a necessity, so necessary that the offense can score easily when the secondary makes a mental error.  It is the defensive back's responsibility to ensure touchdowns are not scored when a defensive lineman or linebacker misses a tackle. 

Ensuring that your secondary is a well-oiled machine is a great weight off of the team's shoulders. If the DBs can take away the opposing team's aerial threat, there's only one way to move the ball and that's on the ground.
