$500,000 in playtime incentives.

I'm guessing that's code for interceptions. If so, I hope he earns his money!

played some safety.
theres a word for that.
positionflex.
it lost meaning under garrett.
it'll find its value under McCarthy.

 

[reddyuta]

man i dont see this as a good signing,we should have signed a real SS.now we have a bunch of FS and Wilson.

No, more likely the amount of snaps he plays

Not true. He got all the position flex he needed with Tyrone Crawford ...im so freaking happy the clapping ginger is gone. i remember a year ago so many against the Idea of bringing Big Mac in as the coach. We needed this change sooner. He hasnt even coached a game yet but the coaching styles is already like night and day.

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

A lot more in guarantees than I expected to see. I'd think that a $1 million signing bonus gives him a pretty good chance to stick.

 

[lockster]

Thoughts?

A one year signing bonus is aweful big, for a player that wasn't redigned by his last team? I hope they really seen something from this guy that's better than our guys and dtaft choices

Odd contract, why pay Brown like they did? I guess Chido is going to S

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Giving Worley a 1 million dollar bonus is nothing. That’s like a tenner to Jerry.

 

[EMMITTnROY]

Given that contract, I think they’re planning on either him getting on the field as our SS or getting on the field as a CB once one of the other guys is moved to safety.

so does this count $1.5 million against the cap, $2.5 million or $3.5 million?

Sounds like the new regime hates most of our old defense.

 

[817Gill]

Split safety scheme we are supposed to run minimizes the role of a SS, hence the guys on the roster.

 

[Oz-of-Cowboy-Country]

Seemd like Lewis is the odd man out. Barring injury that is.

Yeah, I'm getting the feeling that either Chido or Robinson may be safety bound.

 

[Hawkeye19]

An under-whelming signing. Maybe Al Harris sees some traits he can work with— but he does not seem like much more than a vet insurance policy

 

[baltcowboy]

I think they are moving on from Chido and Lewis. Brown is going to be the nickel corner.

They want big long armed press CBs. Looks like they re-signed Anthony Brown to man the slot.

Don’t we all?
