McKelvin?

He stinks.

I mean holy hell if we signed both Eagles CBs that the Eagles wanted absolutely no part of resigning.
You know it was early in the morning...you're right..I was thinking more return guy for him truth be told. ughh an all igglet secondary...brilliant

We will not sign anyone until after the draft, if then. We have our top 3 in OScan, Brown and Carroll. And will add a 1st or 2nd round CB, and maybe a late round or UDFA CB.

We COULD add a vet CB. We will look for a DB in R1-4 but we will take 1-2 later and/or in UDFA where we will load up with competitors.

I think you are cut pasting this over and over. Can't tell for sure because I usually have my eyes closed.

I like Waldo but I think he is looking at this issue with rose colored glasses.

We could add one. I'm not sure we will though. I think we will see a draft pick at corner at some point in the draft but it might be later than expected since it is a deep corner draft. That might be all we take unless they think Scandrick will need to be replaced next season too.

Webb ans Shields are good choices provided Webb is not injured anymore and Shield wont get suspended.

For Safety, isn't Jairus Byrd a FA? I know he didn't really live up to expectations in New Orleans but could he be worth a look?

Just curious.

Pretty much in agreement. I think we could add one early and one later in the draft. After the third round they're all pretty much the same bust potential or if you're more positive success potential. I've not seen data on UDFAs but logically you'd think they can't be far behind the later rounds in terms of likelihood of success.

It will take a pretty special player be it S or CB to get drafted early IMO. We have too many holes. Personally, I love taking an older CB and converting them to S. I think they make great FSs IF they've been better than average AND smart players prior to decline. You can go all the way back to the 60s and look at Landry's taking them.

He is. I'd much rather get Bradley McDougald.

I think they need to consider giving comp picks the same year you loose someone. The idea you could loose 4 players out of your backfield is insane. You are looking at playing a crapload of rookies (if you even have the picks) or cast offs from other teams.
But what about when you tighten a player? Would they get a comp pick taken away?
