As much as I like Springs, this "when healthy" phrase always seems to accompany any praise that is given to him. Unfortunately, as the years pass, the likelyhood of injury will continue. Therefore I don't think is worth keeping him as a CB. Maybe as a Safety.

As a safety though, he's not even a starter.

Basically, if we think he can continue to be a starting corner on a team that employs DeAngelo Hall and Fred Smoot in all of their glory, we should extend his contract. If we don't feel he can stay healthy enough to be a starting corner, then we have to release him at year's end.
