CB Ignored in Free Agency

[That Guy]

I think it serves our interests to get a rookie with some talent in the fold, he can start off as nickel and then take over for Springs once he becomes a total geezer. Given the depth of CB in the draft, we're pretty much guaranteed a shot at a good one. We need to be thinking about the future, CB is not a position I want to mess around with. Need to take young talent while it's available, and it's available at our 2nd rounder this year.

you could say that about a lot of positions. a #3 CB is cheaper in FA than a starting quality OL guy or a LB replacement for arrington. both of those guys HAVE to be starting quality, the CB doesn't.

besides, we might pickup dyson whos a good #2 anyways and cheap.
