Corners that are left. Who will it be?

So here we go, the CB position is probably the one position that needs to be addressed. I'm starting to think we'd be fine at the WR spot, even if we don't sign anyone. But the CB position, not so much. Here's what's left from what I can tell.

1.Chris Carr, CB, Ravens. Age: 28.

He's a decent CB, he'd probably beat out Gamble for the #1 spot. He's not that old either, still would have at least 5 years left. He'd line up next to Gamble instantly. No doubt. This is the FA that I would want.

2. Nate Clements, CB, 49ers. Age: 31.

I'm not convinced with this guy, but at this point he's looking like an OK CB, next to Gamble he would be better than Marshall to be honest. If he comes cheap, I say sure.

3. Antonio Cromartie, CB, Jets. Age: 27.

Ah yes, Cromartie and his family. Um, next to gamble, we'd have a very decent backfield. This is another guy that I wouldn't mind paying a little more for because he's worth that little extra cash. Again, he's still young, has at least 5 years left so he'd be finishing his career with us. That's a good thing, means we can look for a replacement while him and gamble are on their way out.

4. Carlos Rogers, CB, Redskins. Age: 30,

If he can stay healthy. Yes, do want. Even if he's older. Getting him cheap might be a possibility, I can see him pairing with Gamble nicely.

5.Chris Houston, CB, Lions. Age: 26.

Some of you don't want this guy. He remind me a lot of Marshall, but he'd probably beat out marshall to be honest. I beleive he's slightly better than marshall, he's still young and can be coached still. He's definitely a #2 CB, which is what we need. If all the other CB's are signed, and it came down to marshall and him. I'd take houston.

6. ????? Don't know who else is left that can be acquired? Via trade? A. Samuel? If the trade doesn't leave a gaping hole in the panthers backside I say yes.

There's still some options at CB, I hope something gets done soon about this. Even if we don't pick up any more positions of need to secure a CB, I'm all for that.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      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.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
