Cole World 5,841 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Speaking with the media on the subject at the scouting combine in Indianapolis, general manager Thomas Dimitroff said you can’t have too many of them, per the Athletic. “You can never have too many corners — within reason, of course. . . Unfortunately, some of the corners go down, and you’re going to have to have people step up. Back to this being a matchup league, if you don’t have adept corners out there who can not only cover but make plays on balls, which is a really important thing, then you can be run roughshod by other teams who understand that.” Lowndesfalc, atlbaby, PokerSteve and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like a mid tier vet and one early to mid draft pick. That'd give us a young nucleus to grow, with qualified vet experience to step up in case of problems (and we also have some safety flexibility in case of emergency) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fernando C. 1,044 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 they are still good corners to be had in FA... so I im not worried at all... just get one before the draft .... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mister pudding 2,539 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Need more CBs in the next couple of weeks? You mean the draft and free agency? He sure has the uncanny ability to state the obvious. Pacific_Falcon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We need at least one solid vet or a 1 yr vet along with a 3rd/4th round rookie. I’d be good with Brandon Carr or Tramon Williams and then draft Cameron Dantzler Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe, but the arrow has been pointing down for tru the last couple of years or so, and that's not even bringing up the fact that he has no sac. Way too soft, ecstatic he's gone, honestly.
