The Colorado Buffaloes have had a depth problem at safety for quite a few years now. Even the vaunted secondary in 2016 didn’t have too many bodies they could throw back there if the starters got hurt (bless you Afolabi Laguda). From Joe Tumpkin (who deservedly got fired) to Shadon Brown to Tyson Summers to current coach Brett Maxie, there have been plenty of changes over the last five years. The top end talent has always been there for the safeties, but the depth has always been non-existent. In this current roster, the depth has been upgraded from “non-existent” to “untested”.
