Do we really want Browner? I could pass on this dude

If we sign only one more guy in the frenzy period, signing an average safety would upgrade us more than signing another average corner.

I'm not sure how good Browner is coming off suspension/injury, but before that he held his own opposite Sherman. If he still wants to visit here I wouldn't mind bringing him in, but it would have to be a low risk contract considering his suspension.

You are welcome to your opinion. For me, I agree that he is very good in his strengths. However, you have to scheme around him, as Seattle did. Because his size limits his shiftiness, you can't leave him on an island in certain schemes as you would others. Thus I see him as upper middle class, rather than upper class, at best.

Put differently, Browner may not be the same without Earl Thomas behind him.

Move him back to safety and he might be better than when he played with Earl Thomas behind him.

I've been wondering if the Skins might want to try Browner as a FS. He's big, fast, agile, and he hits like a ton of bricks. That would be the kind of creative problem-solving that might help to get us where we want to be.

I also like the fact that Browner is a beast on ST.
