Media has something to talk about... Of course they are going to bash him. It was unexpected and rare move. Hasn't been done since like 2009.  But these people are just reacting to surface and immediate information. Sources say Norman is heading to Redskins today and could be singing a lucrative deal worth about 62.5 mill for 5 years.  In about 6 months they will be praising Gettleman for move. Some  analyst who have agreed recently that it was a smart move. But only time will tell.

I hate how ESPN will throw a video not associated with the story at the top of EVERY SINGLE article. Yes, it's Josh Norman related, but it's Gettleman's presser, not a video of Seifert. If the story doesn't have a video, don't just add a "related" video!!! 

What happened? I blacked out there for a second.

I understand the move. We have to dowhat is best for the team. 15 million a year is just too much. However I'm not going to be one of those guys that knocks on his skills.

Sure maybe he's not Revis. Maybe he's not a true shut down corner. But in this scheme he is basically a shutdown corner that has made plays to save the game on a number of occasions. You have to respect that.

It is a tough decision but not a wrong one.  

We had two incidence where we lost a CB during the season and simply picked one up and kept going.

While I love that J-No was tops in his game.   We'll survive.

Great post! I agree completely. G-man has made it clear again and again that his ideology that good secondaries are a byproduct of great front 7 works. Last season he plugged in CB's off the street and who let's never forget the legion of whom. I'm not saying that it's the best approach (I'm also not saying that it's not the best approach), but it tends to work for us.

      If we get to 4-3 do we make a sneaky trade?

      Corbett should move back to guard if anything while being the backup for BC and Lewis. Cade needs to stay at center. That much has been obvious since last year.  Coker needs to be fast tracked to the lineup, preferably starting over XL.  The problem comes with Chubba, JT and Turk... 3 starters that the backups have arguably outperformed. I like JT's ball skills but I'm quickly becoming an Evans fan. Hopefully JT coming back will only affect James Mitchell. Idunno but Rico should be untouchable at the moment...he's on OPTY/MVP pace and Turk should NEVER be utilized as a NT again.

      Looking at the TE situation, does Sanders get on the field if he can't block to the level of TT and ME?  I am 100% on board with Sanders getting Wally Pipped on this one.  We have plenty of WR's, I don't see what huge advantage he gives us over TT or ME, or even James Mitchel at this point.  Canales said when he was hired that the TE was a huge part of his offense.  The blocking displayed by the TE room Sunday was exactly what he meant. I also think the WR rotation ends up being....  TMAC, Coaker, Brycen, XL, Horn, Renfrow.  XL needs to learn to run routes, block his ass off, and be dependable if he wants to get opportunities going forward.  He's about to lose the Trust of BY.  Looking at the top 3 Wr's, I easily see JHJr passing him on the depth chart.  My money is on Renfrow being inactive most games going forward.
