I guess it's down to Kelvin Hayden or a CB that is cut

Is Hayden that much of a drop off from Carlos Rogers? Hayden just turned 28 last month and from what I've seen comparing stats, seems like he has played a similar role as Rogers in Washington. Does Hayden fit our scheme? Any speculation on who could be cut from other teams before opening weekend that we could acquire? Gamble as a 1 and Captain in the nickel is okay, but that gaping hole at the #2 spot is rough. Rogers on a 1-year deal for the $$ he got in SF would have fit perfectly, and given us a band-aid until next year when we can address it. Hmmmmm...... decisions decisions.

Hayden would still be our best option at #2 corner. Honestly, I don't think Rivera has any clue how weak our secondary is in a division with three of the best quarterbacks in the league. Mistake #1 for Ron, he's worried about finding a 3rd string QB but he isn't gonna address this glaring need. Get Hayden, he can adapt.

Yes we know much more about Defense than Ron Rivera. :willy_nilly:

thats the thing i'm fighting in my own mind. i keep on looking at these "glaring" holes that i think we have, esp. with CB and the lack of available talent out there and i get frustrated.

then i have to remind myself of who the HC is. the guy knows what he's doing. i know it's not totally up to him, but i feel good that hurney is doing his best to get the guys that rivera wants. if rivera thinks that we will be alright with the guys that we have or that he can make it work...he knows better than any of us. he knows better than just about anyone in the league. if he thinks it's alright to wait and see what falls with the cuts, the we have to believe that the guy knows what he's talking about and if anyone can make it work, i've got to believe rivera can.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
