Safety Visits (We know about Brown & Whitner...)

Recommended Posts

Per David Newton (I know, take it with a grain of salt), Rivera mentioned we're looking at 4 safeties.  2 vets, 2 young guys.

Brown and Whitner are the vets...so who could the young ones be?

A brief list of FA safeties on the younger end:

Sean Richardson (26) was with GB -- injury issues may stall his career but he had a ton of potential

Will Hill (26) -- Had 64 tackles and an INT last year for BAL.  suspended

Bacarri Rambo (26) -- now he could be interesting IMO

Jerome Couplin (24) -- Don't know much about him

Any guesses?  

Forgive me if it's been posted...

When I read that, Lou Holtz pops into my head. "Son, your potential is gonna get me fired"

I was a fan of his at Vandy but has proven to be of minimal impact at all in the league.  Market is really thin.  I wonder if we wait until the first round of cuts to make a move.

Rambo is a beast in Madden with high catch and hit power ratings. Obviously Rivera and Getts know this.

@The Huddler is one of Gettleman's favorite opponents in Madden. He's the inside source for Igo, Voth, and that reporter from Baltimore

Oh, was that a secret?

Oops

I'd guess at this point they will see who is let go by Tuesday when all teams go to 75. Bound to be a serviceable safety made available somewhere. Are any teams particularly deep at safety? Gettleman could make a play like he did for Jared Allen but earlier in the year. 

Word was leaked the 49ers were shopping safety Antoine Bethea and OL Anthony Davis this offseason.  Bethea is older than Hitner however and has a cap hit that's way too high.  But with Reid and Tartt and zero chance in the short term I could see them taking practically nothing.  Davis quit football and was a turd publicly until recently, ironically, saying the right things and that he'd be willing to play any position on the line.  As with any trade nothing is too good to be true but it's worth noting at least.  Klein and/or a late pick isn't too far fetched.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
