Brown is a cornerback and he does not tackle like Hill.
Safeties have to cover also. And Brown's tackling is just fine. He just isn't as physical as Hill. The point is, why draft a guy in the first when we have a guy on the roster with similar traits.

By resigning both Kearse and Hooker to 2 year deals, it makes the Safety position not a high priority as like in previous years.
However. Like most I have high hopes for Hooker in his 2nd year away from his major injury.
Bit he has always been a little I jury prone.
I would still look at a depth/developmental player say with one of our 5ths
But it at least allows us to push a high draft pick on a safety off another year or two.

While I can’t stand the way this team is being built and the bums with huge contracts staying around I really like the back end of the secondary.

1. Wilson is an underrated baller who shoots like a rocket when he reacts to a play. One of the quickest closing bursts in the NFL, he just needs to stay on the field.
2. Kearse needed to be retained. He was a huge leader of the defense, stayed healthy and very steady play and one of the best tacklers I can remember us having in the backend since Darren Woodson. He also took out some of the games best receiving TEs. A huge well needed resigning.
3. Hooker is so underrated and I think we are going to have a steal with him this year. He’s over a year removed from a ligament tear and he was always a playmaker when heathy. He was also a very solid tackler and rarely out of position. Look out for this guy this year!

Now if only this team could get it right in the draft and solidly the interiors of both sides of the lines.
Cut it out! Your giving me hope! Lol
