Did not know this. Wilson def isn't worth that figure if that's what you're saying, but IMO we're short on DB talent and can't afford to part with him.

There's things a really like about our corners. They're tough, both Wilson and Hall will punish the ball carrier, take out bigger guys and even create some fumbles. And they're good out corner blitzes and getting to the QB. I give them some leeway because both are undersized vs most #1 WRs. Springs was our last corner who could cover basically anyone (long as Springs was healthy), and we need a guy like that again.

But FS is still the biggest need defensively and where we'll get the biggest bang for the buck. If Jammer is a prospect at FS (per Smoot) I'm excited.

Quentin Jammer, DB for the San Diego Chargers at NFL.com

If we sign him, you have to think either he or Hall is headed to FS, and I give Jammer the nod just because he's got the size/reach advantage.

DeAngelo Hall, DB for the Washington Redskins at NFL.com

Hall would be a serious ball hawk at FS but get trucked from time to time and probably gamble too much.

We're supposedly also interested in Jammers teammate Corey Lynch; a FS/SS ST who filled in great last year for San Diego when their starting SS went out. He by the way, can catch unlike some of our other DBs, and he'll be very cheap. He would be insurance should we not get a safety we think can start.

SS, who are we higher on, Rambo or Swearinger?

Probably Swearinger between those two
