This isn't going to happen. Sorry for  safety wanting fans but,with Godfrey likely to on the roster not to mention lester and mitchell and maybe mikell likely to return. The  Need just isn't there. were losing all receivers ginn,lafell hix and so on. Not to mention the big hol on toffensive line. It's just not really possible and would be a black eye to the franchise(and cam) if this were to happen. END.

 

Not sure what you're talking about.

 

Gman didnt draft Godfrey and with a bad contract + injury he could likely be gone. At this point, no one can assume that Mitchell and Mikell are locks. There's a high chance that Mitchell is back, but not an aging Mikell. Lester played well as an udfa, but I'm not sure Rivera feels comfortable with him being the starter just yet.

 

For whatever I know, Rivera was linked to two "safeties" in consecutive years: Mark Barron (2012) and Kenny Vaccaro (2013). I'm pretty sure that Rivera will take a hard look at Pryor during the draft process. Atm, safety is as big a need as everything else.

Godfrey's contract is so big that if we were were cut we would leave 5 million in cap on the table as dead money. That said cutting him isn't realistic. Add to the fact mitchell played at a pro bowl level he likely returns as well. With lester there in the wings Signing a safety in the first round isn't realistic Even if we factor in mikell is gone(no word yet). Just not gonna happen unless mitchell walks even then i dout the team is uncomfortable with lester where as to draft a safety to play ahead of him in the first. Godfrey staying pretty much messes up the whole idea of that which is why NO ONE has mocked a safety to us. This would be about as likely as us drafting a RB in the first.

I like the kid Dixon out of Baylor he's a real big hitter prob be a third rounder which will likely allow the offense to be boosted in the first two rounds.

uhhhh.... we don't draft by "need."

[Hammerin'Cameron34]

Pryor would be sick. 

[prowler2k8]

Would love to have Pryor here.. 

 

Have Pryor start at SS and resign Mitchell to play FS

 

I agree that Pryor would be a great choice for us @ #28. However, if Mike Mitchell were re-signed, he would likely man the SS spot while Pryor would be a potential starter @ FS.

With what the Aints just did, it's not a shock if Godfrey isnt back. Making Godfrey a June 1 cut will free up around  $4-5mil. Dont see why we Gman wouldnt cut him.

Micnificant still pretending to know what's gonna happen I see... :lol: Dude, get over it. He could end up drafting another DT for all we know.

Micnificent* use your common sense sir it's easy. Just like Moncreif going in the 3rd round.everyone knows....but...you

[micnificent28]

uhhhh.... we don't draft by "need."

Maybe we will draft a quarterback then? I think you guys take the BPA thing a little to far,we don't draft for need within "reason".....

I would love to watch those two crush receivers all season long.

I'm not sure if you should go that far and make such a bold statement about Moncrief being a 3rd rounder.

From what i understand cutting him would free up about 2 million while leaving us stuck with a 5 million dollar cap hit. For a team trying to resign two high level stars(Cam,Hardy). I don't see how we can leave 5 million dollars going to waste just  to cut a position of need and then draft a player at the same position. Just isn't very logical.

No, it would free up close to 5mil as a June 1 cut.

Also, not sure if Hardy is coming back. Def think that he's not getting a long term contract. If anything, a franchise tag. We'll be in better position next season and the year after that. We should have no problem signing Cam, etc.

Show me one person that has in in the 1st? haven't seen him in the second either. He will run around a 4.6 and land in the 3rd round is the idea i've been getting from reading scouting reports and so on. Right now matthews and cooks look to land in the second round range as well so its hard to see him in the same league as those 2.
