Hurney was interviewed on WFNZ today and asked some direct questions about our CB situation, here is my summary of what was said:

- We like what we've got at CB right now, but we're keeping our eyes open.

- Are we interested in Asante Samuel? Sounds like the answer is no, talks about how we're close to the cap and now we need to "pick our spots" (Samuel is too expensive).

From what I've seen/heard, RJ Stanford seems to be performing well in camp so maybe we're projecting him as our nickelback with Capt. and Gamble on the edges?

My concern is what happens if either Capt. or Gamble go down with an injury...

are Gamble/Capt better than the duo we had in 2003?

maybe Rivera will make up for what we lack in the back w/ pressure?

in 2003 our division wasn't a power house like it is now. Captain will not be able to cover Julio Jones/White. He won't be able to cover Colston or Mike Williams either

Yeah, the Jones/White vs. Gamble/Capt matchup doesn't sound good.

It's possible that we're bluffing on the Samuel situation to see if the price drops... Eagles have too many cooks in the kitchen right now and Samuel is already getting nippy about it (his interview the other day).

I felt pretty certain we were going to sign Carlos Rodgers... now I'm not sure what to think.

      a look at our 19 udfas

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
