Are there a few FA’s at CB out there that are proficient man defenders AND would be available at around $8 million, or so?
Not necessarily very top tier, mind you, but at least competent? Making TruJo (and his salary) expendable?
A cap friendly move that might result in a possibly better fit in Wade’s D?
If so, a 1st round pick at NT or rush LB might give us better bang for our D buck, both short and long term.
Sigh...
Gotta trust these coaches on this one.
I posted a list of upcoming FA CB's that were both pretty good and shouldn't break the bank about a month ago right after Webster got injured.
Rashaan Melvin, Prince Amukamara, Morris Claiborne, Patrick Robinson, Byron Maxwell, EJ Gaines, Kyle Fuller, Aaron Colvin, Bashaud Breeland, T.J Carrie......
I think it would be nice to bring EJ Gaines back. Spotrac.com has an estimate market value of $9.6M for him.
We should be able to get one of these names in the $7M to $9M range. I'd prefer to do that than pay TruJ $12M+.
