Not sure what his cap number is this year, but it has to be 6 million+, meaning there is no way we can afford him.  Another small corner who struggles to play face to face with his man.  The next generation of corner is 6+ feet and strong, Seattle is showing that, and in a division with Vincent Jackson, Colston, Graham, and Julio, that should be more evident then ever.

Idk what his salary is, and may be getting paid too much, but the guy is a beast corner

 

From the link...

 

Flowers struggled mightily in DC Bob Sutton's press-man scheme last season, grading out as a bottom-15 cover corner at PFF. He allowed a 66.7 percent completion rate, 846 yards, and four touchdowns in his coverage, while QBs had a 103.9 rating throwing at him. Flowers has three years left on a six-year, $49.35 million deal and may be difficult to move. At 5-foot-9 and 187 pounds, he's best suited to fill the slot role.

Also rumored that the Chiefs are having great difficulty signing Alex Smith to new deal and could be interested in a QB.  Probably just smoke.

 

Smith has probably already agreed to a deal, but they are keeping under wraps until after the draft just to add intrigue and misdirection

It shows what his salary is.

Do you think he's worth that kind of salary?

(money the team doesn't have to spare, by the way)

No not the salary. I understand that perspective.

I think he is a good CB and is worth good CB money. He is being paid great CB money. Especially considering our financial situation, and the physical defense we play, he isn't a good fit here.

A reasonable contract and the right system, and he is a top 10 corner.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.

      So where can I find out tailgating parking spots for the season?

      By toldozer · Posted

      I parked in this lot a few times. It would take over and hour to get out of that lot after games. Never again
