and if he doesn't get someone that can start by september, we'll be complaining about blown coverages all season and why didn't we sign someone, blah blah blah.

not many 6th round picks start or play well in their first year and we don't have a starting FS (barring this move).

he's a better merriweather. no one's expecting a miracle, but he should be okay... and if we find someone better, they can be drafted/signed/brought in to try and take the spot.

if we draft a pass rusher the D should be good this year, and next year we can try to find a better option at FS and sign/find a NT and maybe another CB and we'll be set for 2016.

still need a QB that can play well though.
