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.

    • Yeah one big factor has been he is surprisingly quite durable. But the reality of that aspect is much of it boils down to plain dumb luck more often than not. Big guys get hurt smaller guys get hurt it happens across the league to anyone to varying degrees. The issue is we are staring down the barrel of a possible top 10 QB salary and Bryce Young is one of the least physically gifted starters in the league. That is not a shot at him it is simply a rational acknowledgment of circumstances. There is a legitimate question to be asked if his window as a starter in this league is smaller as a result because what is going to happen when those hits that he has previously popped right back up from with a smile on his face begin to accumulate as they do for every player that has been in this league? These are just things to consider.
    • This game is a must-win for both teams I feel. For the Canes, you don’t want to go back to Vegas and put them in front of their home crowd with a chance to close out the series. For Vegas, if you drop this game your only chance is to win 2 straight and similarly have to contend with an energized Canes home crowd if you get to a game 7.
