Well i don't think he is a shutdown corner as much as a big play corner. I would rather have a shutdown corner but big play ability is next on the list. I'd say he is top 10 CB in the league but not on the coberage level of Bailey. It is REALLY hard to get quality CBs in this league and losing our top two in two seasons probably strikes the front office as looking awfully stupid so I think they'll do what it takes to get the job done. It's not like they can count on there being another Springs out there to replace Smoot if they lose him. He'll get good money but I bet not Champ money. I don't think he has the respect of the league like that.
