I like him to, but some say there's not much left.

Yeah, I don't know how much he'd have to have left to be better than what we had ... and I like Church better than most on here.

I don't think Bethea would be as good against the run as Church and definitely not as big of a hitter as Wilcox, but even at 32, he's probably better in coverage.

The smarts and experience are there, I'm just not sure if the ability to get there and make the play still is.

If that's the case, it sounds like the Cowboys will be losing both Church and Wilcox. I expected them to be able to keep at least one of them.

Was hoping we could retain Wilcox for cheap. We know Church is going to be costly and I dont think we should turn over more than half our secondary. I figured wed keep one safety and one cb.

Same here. Looks like things will be even worse than I had expected. And that was already bad.

What's it going to be then, eh?

I don't think any of our free agents are going to be cheap when there are teams flush with cap to spend. The Buccaneers are up there and can throw funny money at Wilcox that we simply won't be able to match without compromising ourselves. This is called "doing whatever we want in free agency".

"Anybody we don't re-sign is somebody we didn't want back anyway! Nah! Nah! Nah!" :angry:

We got some internal options at SS, not worried about it.

This is what happens when you have a good season. People overpay for your FAsjust like after the '14 season.
