Good job Redskins on this signing. I can finally shut up about wanting another corner, thank God the FO agreed with me on this one.


Grim, as far as a viable argument for moving Springs to safety there is only one thing that comes to my mind.

Older corners typically can extend there careers/ improver there productivity by switching to safety, so from his standpoint, I can definitely see that he would be willing to make the change. Also, Considering that last year when PP went down, all hell broke loose and we sucked.

I happen to agree with you that moving our best corner is a bad idea. What we need is a little help from the D-line and a certain unnamed corner to hold on to couple balls.

At any rate, with this signing we're solid at corner, and can finally focus on fixing up the d-line.

Rod Woodson and Corey Fuller are two examples of top-notch corners who toward the twilight of their career moved to Safety. I think Springs can really help the team just by being on the field and as a safety he could arguably have a greater impact because he would have a better vantage point from which to "survey" the field, and be like a defensive QB.

However, my main gripe with moving Springs to safety is that I think he'd be better served as a free safety than a strong safety...so, would we move Taylor to strong safety?
