Looks like Skins are $10 mil over cap next year, who goes?

but I really think we should keep Harris. I think he is an excellent nickel corner, who has enough starting experience to be a spot starter should Rogers get hurt next year. I just dont know that you can get that much more of an experienced, decent corner for $2.4m. But I definitely agree that something is wrong with Hall and we need to replace him...he just dont look right.

Hey - at least you aren't quoting yourself yet!

I think he's a decent nickel corner, but I disagree that he can step into fill for Rogers. His tackling is abysmal and he just doesn't seem to be that good (based on his play this season). I think we can upgrade (somewhat - not substantially) for the amount we are paying Harris.

I agree about Hall - he just hasn't recovered. We need to drop at least ONE kickoff in the endzone this season!

Bowen I just haven't seen much this year. I know he was hurt for a bit, but it seems like we could survive without him. Unless, of course, ST ends up in jail.

I have to agree, as much as Harris has been burnt this year as our No. 2 corner, he still is above average nickle back and can match up well with a No. 3 wideout. That being said, you would hope that in case of injury your No. 3 corner could move up to No. 2 without much drop off, but that clearly is not the case with Harris.

Hall had a nagging leg injury. which I believe is getting better. No way should we cut him. dont you remember all the damn troubles we have had with crappy kickers over the last 10 years. His leg is getting stronger, and appears to be healing. On the 45 yarder he missed last week, It was well long enough. It would have been long enought from over 50+. and his kick offs were getting to the goal line again. When Hall is healthy he is automatic from the 45-47 and in. Good teams have good reliable kickers. We need a HEALTHY John Hall, which it looks like he is getting healthy.
