The only downside to this trade is we may possibly be overpaying for a starting safety.

At the same time, if he doesn't make the team or if a better option arises after teams start cutting rosters, all we done is moved down in the 6th round to ensure we at least had a starting caliber free safety.on the roster.

If we end up overpaying for his services this year, okay. Not like T.Williams is getting cut to make room for him. There is plenty of cap flexibility and a 1-2M overpay is not going to hurt us in either the short or long term. Signing Goldson gives us an insurance policy at the FS position and doesn't prevent us from exploring any of the other options others have said we should do (moving guys, signing guys, drafting guys, developing. guys).
