It's more likely that they see Cox as insurance and Barr as a starter. They were negotiating with Barr before this.
No, not really.
Cox is not Barr and vice versa, two totally different players and totally different roles.
There is a reason why Q covets the WLB because we cant ever keep anyone healthy.
Thats where Q want to send his missile defense, thats what Im coining it, so you peeps can take it and feel free to call it your own.
Qs missile D comes from the WLB and its ability to flex and Cox was the best prospect Q has had with this roster for that role. and finding the speed and strength has somewhat been addressed but getting fortunate with health has not been so fortunate.
Take a look at transactions and look at the constant pursuit of anyone that can fill that role.
Bell was our primary UDFA target and acquisition.
Jefferson just a recent add.
Anyone been getting a close eye on Bell, at least to identify if playing solely at SS, something I said I would be looking for, but time and info are hard to come by these days...
Wouldnt surprise me if Bell start getting some looks in the Cox role if he hasn't already done so.
Peeps might think Im crazy, but that positional player to Quinn for his missile scheme is more important to him than even a top 1Tech, but Im sure he would love to have either right now.
