Any good free agent CBs out there?

Dallas needs a veteran backup who can primarily sub in at CB, but secondarily sub in at FS.

Is there anyone out there that fits that bill that Dallas should be considering?
 
The Colts recently released Kelvin Hayden but I have to say that I don't know a lot about him.

Unfortunately, they probably feel they have that guy in Alan Ball.
 
Jordan Babineaux could fit that bill.

He's primarily played nickel CB during his career in Seattle, and could fill Scandrick's role there. He's also played SS ... and in 2009, he started for them at FS recording 104 tackles, 1.5 sacks, 6 passes defensed, 2 Int's, and 1 FF

I still don't think he's signed with anyone.

I think he's still under contract with Seattle IIRC. He would have to be acquired in a trade.

Edit: Nope. I was wrong. He's a free agent. I'm not sure why he hasn't signed yet.
 
Kelvin Hayden is only about 3 years removed from getting more guaranteed money than Asante Samuel. He's a very good CB but might be limited to the cover 2 system and hasn't been injured a lot in the last 3 years.

Still, I'd definitely bring him in on a one or two year deal. The Commanders are also snooping around him.

we'll probably have to wait to final cuts to add somebody. pretty much slim pickings out there right now. lito sheppard, randall gay and frank walker are the only names i recognize that are available.

brent grimes? brandon carr?

I think both Brandon Carr and Brent Grimes have 1st round tenders on them. Not sure how that all works post-lockout, but if that is the cost, I'd pass for both..

Whoever said Jordan Babineaux, I think that is a good suggestion. Versatile and experienced. Solid player with no upside, but good security for us.

There's some vet CBs like Randall Gay and Leto Shepperd available, but beyond being "vets" I'm not sure what they offer.

I'd like the team to look at Goldson from the 49ers.

And does anyone know what the story is with Deunta Williams? Did he kill a puppy or something? How is he unsigned?

I've heard that his injury still requires additional rehab.

Hmm. I'm surprised that someone doesn't pick him up and dump him on PUP/IR for the year. When he was healthy, he was a top safety prospect. So even if you don't get him until next year, he'd be worth it.
 
Lito Sheppard might have something left and I think he'd probably love a chance to stick it to the Eagles too.

Think about this thread for a sec...

If a player is good he won't be out there...

Huh?

Kelvin Hayden is pretty good and he's out there.

Carlos Rogers is good too and he was out there up to about a day ago.
