Not sure how much $ he is asking for but maybe he can be recruited by our popular new coaching staff.

Prefect size and play.
Leads all current NFL current players with 30 interceptions and he is 30 years old. He would solidify our defense instantly.

Apparently safeties and running backs are all useless. Just plug and play.

I disagree this is true, and definitely with safeties, but that seems to be the case based on how the market is playing out.

It doesn't make sense to me, it's obviously a passing league, but somehow either of us could possibly start at safety for us.
