Free Agent Cornerbacks/Safetys


Dex

Recommended Posts

We are most likely keeping Gamble, Hogan, Godfrey and Munnerlyn. Possibly Butler if he comes cheap. So that leaves around 5 possibly slots between promoting from practice squad, free agency and the draft. Now I see us picking up Casey Hayward in the 4th because I'm not totally sold on picking up Kirkpatrick with that pick. So we have some possibilities in free agency.

Cornerbacks

Cortland Finnegan, Tennessee Titans (Drew Brees is in our division.)

Brent Grimes, Atlanta Falcons

Carlos Rogers, San Francisco 49ers (We should have got him last year no way he leaves San Fran.)

Brandon Carr, Kansas City Chiefs

Tracy Porter, New Orleans Saints

Rashean Mathis, Jacksonville Jaguars

Marcus Trufant, Seattle Seahawks

Terrell Thomas, New York Giants

Ronde Barber, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Eric Wright, Detroit Lions

Aaron Ross, New York Giants

William Gay, Pittsburgh Steelers

Richard Marshall, Arizona Cardinals (Bring him back for the league minimum.)

Tim Jennings, Chicago Bears

Alan Ball, Dallas Cowboys

Elbert Mack, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Corey Graham, Chicago Bears

Zackary Bowman, Chicago Bears

Kelvin Hayden, Atlanta Falcons

I like the idea of this setup in order.

-Gamble

-Finnegan

-Hayward/Hogan/Butler

-Munnerlyn (ST Hero)

As for safeties have Rivera make a call and bring this man in with a nice restructured contract.

Oh I forgot no one ever changes their mind after the draft. My bad I guess this thread is GIF approved.

Were going to have to deal with that stupid response every time free agency discussion comes up, so you better settle in.

Rest assured, when we sign our first even relatively decent player I'm going to go ballistic on some folk. I've already got my list cooking,

Tracy Porter would be a nice signing with the Saints having to pay as many people as they do. Cortland Finnegan would be a lovely signing, we need someone with an attitude on defense, but I don't realistically see him leaving Tennessee.
Recently heard he's been somewhat disgruntled because he hasn't been taken care of yet. Also yes he is the Steve Smith of the Defense. Also Smitty vs CF practice should be interesting.

Also this is my mock.

#1 - Devon Still DT Penn State (Beast)

#2 - Sean Spence OLB Miami (Thomas Davis 2.0)

#4 - Casey Hayward CB Vanderbilt (Play maker & steal)

#5 - Brandon Mosley OT Auburn (Not Otah)

#6 - Shaun Powell P Florida State (Baker is bad)

#7 - D''Anton Lynn CB Penn State (Not Martin)

corey graham should be brought in since he's a special teams beast

don't think we can afford grimes, carr, finnegan, thomas, or anyone like that

no safeties available that i'm interested in either...

Yeah, no safeties interested me either. I'm not totally concerned with the Cap as of now with all these TV Deals coming but I like to keep an open mind because clearly Captain isn't the answer.

I like Brandon Carr and Aaron Ross. Remember we don't need a #1 corner just a #2. I think either of those guys could take on that role and be effective. There is also the chance Hogan could step up and be a#2 corner as well.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
