Our new free safety

[CarlAllDay]

all this guy does is make play even for the rams!!!

he would come a pretty good price i like landry from the ravens but he's a
restricted free agent.

but my little brother is a rams fan so i have seen enough of him and this guy brings it.

he can cover and lay the wood he has 6 forced fumbles and 5 ints this year and we can move hamlin to strong safety where he belongs.

i beleive hamlin if focused on tackling like he did in seattle playing ss he will be fine i just think he didnt trust who we had playing next to him at times and cant say that i dont blame him.

but i think this guy would be great on our defense and shouldnt command more than 5mil per season which is pretty cheap compared to what we have spent in the secondary.

we can cut henry and let the young guys play more and tell roy to beef up to play lb or go elsewhere

Is he a free agent or something?

Is he a free agent or something?

yup unrestricted free agent this year

 

[Canadian BoyzFan]

I thought most of you hated Canadians?

 

[casmith07]

Brian Dawkins, PHI and Atari Bigby, GB are also UFAs this year.

 

[RealCowboyfan]

Either one of those people Brain Dawkins or Atari Bigby would do.. TRADE ROY WILLIAMS

Atogwe is a nice young playmaker. Bad thing is, he will be looking to cash in. I don't think we bother.

 

[CarlAllDay]

dawkins is a 1 year solution and bigby doest produce the way this guy has he's 27 and for the last 3 seasons he's been getting better.

playing for the rams i can see how this guy is underated by most but he's a playmaker and thats what we need in that secondary at the fs position and he can hit in run support.

TRADE ROY WILLIAMS

Nobody would take him.

with no probowls to his resume and playing for the rams i dont think he can go too high but you never know with Mr jones he might offer the guy a record contract and call him a WOW player

 

[McCordsville Cowboy]

I'd rather have Taylor Mays....

Make it happen Jerry.

Trade 2-5 and get him.

i like taylor mays but we went that route before with a safety in the top 10 and you see how that turned out and and move up that high but at what cost???

we'd really have to mortgage our whole draft for a kid we dont know what he's gonna do in the pros not to mention he's gonna cost us a fortune.

i'd rather go with a proven playmaker who's gonna come cheaper than a top 5 pick and may be a bust.

plus im a little queasy on usc recent players see: dwayne jarret, mike williams, reggie bush good but not worth the hype, carson palmer constantly hurt and no playoffs wins just one apperance, jacob rodgers lol, winston justice lol,....

lofa tupu and polamolu are good but thats not a good ratio.

oh yeah and best of all matt leinart terrible.

 

[Gaede]

I was huge on Atogwe coming out of the draft, mainly cause he was Canadian....but it turns out he's actually a good player, seems like every week he makes some kind of play

 

[TellerMorrow34]

I like the idea of Bigby or Atogwe. They are both good players at the FS position that could really help us.

That would also allow us to free up space by letting both Roy Williams and Anthony Henry go.

 

[DaBoys4Life]

Brian Dawkins, PHI and Atari Bigby, GB are also UFAs this year.

none of them are upgrades from what we have.

Atogwe is going to get paid more than Hamlin....IDK if JJ going to put out the money for another player especially considering how crappy Hamlin was last year.

The more I watch him, the more I get the feeling he always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Roy Williams circa 2006.

But it would be worth it to get him or Bigby. I like both of them.

Now Dawkins? He would rather retire than come here.

 

[Shinywalrus]

OJ and Atari will be out of our price range. Safety depth will come from within and from the draft.

 

[theogt]

As long as we stay away from Atari Bigby. The guy is atrocious. People will be *****ing about how Jerry can't evaluate talent.

I disagree. I think Atogwe would be a vast upgrade at FS from what we have playing there now.

As long as we stay away from Atari Bigby. The guy is atrocious. People will be *****ing about how Jerry can't evaluate talent.

Really? I'll admit I haven't seen Bigby a ton, or anything, but the times I've seen him play he's always seemed to make plays and be a good player. Does he only do this once in a while or something?

 

[AbeBeta]

No more money spent on the safety position. We have two huge contracts back there right now and neither are worth the money.

We need to bring in another rookie next year. I'm all for RW38 coming back to give it another go so long as I don't have to read again this off-season about how he is rededicating himself to the game or about how he is missing OTAs (voluntary or not) to go on a cruise.
