We've seen time and again that putting a high priced FA into a different system may bite you in the a$$. I had a feeling that CB's were different, because cover skills should translate to different systems -> but Nnamdi is a recent example where it can backfire.

However, it is enticing to see a secondary that includes: Winfield, Wilson, Hall, Biggers, with a healthy Merriweather and sober Jackson backing them up. Then a couple of draft picks and vets.. There'd still be big issues, but last year we scored 27 ppg (#4) and gave up 24ppg (#22) -- any defensive improvement from last year could keep us contenders for the playoffs and a lucky streak would get us into the SuperBowl.

I'd hate to see Winfield go to Seattle. If they keep their team together, it looks like we're going to have to go through them for the next decade to get to the SuperBowl.
