Smiler11 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 He'll be a great signing if we can get him cheap, but we don't have a great deal of cap to be playing with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vel Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 This Green Bay game has you guys shook still. The Green Bay game showed us how not sacking the QB can kill you and how not being able to score quickly can make things worse. When we played them during the regular season we beat them because we contained Rodgers fairly well and we could move the ball. The same defense was on the field as the playoff game. Yes Owens struggled and can be the scapegoat but did Jordy Nelson score all 48 points? No. The whole defense sucked. Now I am all for another CB to be added but I have confidence in Owens and Franks to hold down the nickel spot with our new toy at LE bringing more pressure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman88 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 ppl look, yall keep saying bring in players but we have our OWN plyers to groom.... owens is in a contract year... and franks will be next year.... we dnt have time to go get a vet. its time to see wat owens and franks can do NOW. have a lil FAITH in our picks.

He signed a 4 yr contract when he was drafted in 09. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stldirtybird Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 Ok so who do we have behind Owens and Franks....what if one of our starters gets hurt we only have 4 dbs who is next up behind them is all I'm saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84White32Quizz Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I expect a CB to be brought in but for depth only. Just like the RG position, we will let some of our own young guys battle it out for the spot.It would excite me to see Brandon Harvey or Andy Strickland step up and be our number 5 WR, but if not we can always bring Fin back if we need to and if he hasnt signed elsewhere.

Do you think he would come here to be the #5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman88 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Owens is definitely not in a contract year. He signed a 4 yr contract when he was drafted in 09.ok even more of a reson not too.. if we sign a vet cb then wat?? i guess we let him and owens battle it out in his last year??? makes no sense when he can do that now... and then think about franks, it will get in his way as well... there is a reason why we cut williams, not cause he couldnt play, but because its time for one of the young guys to step up...

NewtonLaws Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I agree!!! Bring in Hayden. He is a zone coverage corner, and probably fit in our scheme a whole lot better than any other corner in FA. I also hope Franks steps up big this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stldirtybird Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 Ok so if Owens or Franks wins the nickle and one of our starters get hurt....that leaves on back CB....all I'm saying is we need more depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDirtyBird Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Ok so if Owens or Franks wins the nickle and one of our starters get hurt....that leaves on back CB....all I'm saying is we need more depth.That's true.. If franks was to win the spot then one of our starters got hurt, i would hate to have to rely on owens once again.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Falcon Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Why did the Colts cut Hayden? DId he have a bad year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbsmooth1975 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Hayden would be a good pick up. I think he can play some safety too. Would go crazy if we managed to land Cromartie or Samual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MARCUS_MARGARITA Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I'd love it if we brought Hayden here. I'll never forget his first interception. 56 yards to the house in Superbowl XLI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Game Blouses™ Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 We need to move fast a sign a corner theres only 2 quality ones out there Hayden and Rogers... make it happen TD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danishfalcon Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I bet we will go into preseason with Franks/Owens as 3rd and 4th DB, and based on their performance we may, or may not sign a veteran DB. Just like we did when we brought Brian Williams in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
