Not really since the 3rd CB often plays in the slot, which is probably better suited for Brown.

But you’re weakening the slot CB position in the process and he’s still playing about as much as the starters are except on obvious running downs.

Demoting him really doesnt make sense unless you have 3 CB’s better than him.

I am not sure you are weakening it. I think he's a pretty decent slot CB. Good enough that if you shift Scandrick outside, you probably are net ahead where Scandrick is better outside than Brown and Brown isn't that huge drop off in the slot.

I don't think Scandrick is good enough anymore to play outside at CB1/CB2. His best position is slot CB.

BIg WRs put Jones at CB with Lewis. have to be careful against teams with good TEs. Jones is the only guy i trust
Small WR put Scandrick with Lewis
BUT Scandrick is by far the best slot CB and should always be there unless their slot is of little concern.
Brown is fine, young and improving
Truth is all these guys are gonna be playing alot.

Truth is we may have three CBs in Lewis, Scandrick and Brown who are all better in the slot.

I think he's probably better than Brown at this point where if you shift Scandrick outside and put Brown in the slot you might be ahead, even slightly.

Is it? We cut Cederic Thorton and Stephen Paea retired, he's the closest thing we have to a 1 Tech.

Asinine in the sense we are in a position where we have to play Collins at the 1 Tech. This was preventable if the front office had a better plan at the 1 tech instead of their grab any schlub off the street plan.

Might want to try this first:
Outside: Lewis & Jones
Slot: Brown
FS - Awuzie
SS - Woods
Dime: Scandrick

Would be okay with it, but they'll never move Jones to CB. Also, I have my doubts that Awuzie will be healthy any time soon.
