Banks and Hobbs make them better not necessarily by themselves but in the aggregate.  

Banks isn’t as good as Jenkins at guard, but Jenkins is significantly better at center than the guy playing there last year.  Myers was average in that regard.  Jenkins has the ability to be an All Pro manning that center spot.  

Hobbs has a unique skill set and while he’s not elite at anything he is now probably their best tackling corner on the roster.   Our corners were atrocious last year in run support.  

And since he can play boundary or slot he’s likely going to see a lot of playing time.   If I’m Bullard and Nixon I’m probably not thrilled with this move and chances are if and when they draft a corner high again they will be even less pleased.  

Where things could get super interesting is if Jaire somehow returns to GB.   He and Hobbs would make a very good 1-2 combo and add in their backups and that’s a really good secondary.

Obviously they still need help at outside pass rusher and wide receiver, but my guess is they draft both or possible at a middle tier WR outside of the draft.  

I would think they intend on playing Hobbs outside with Bullard manning the slot. I would really like to see us keep Jaire.
