    In spades too. Isn't it double in spades?

    If they don't pick up at least 1 solid UFA CB then 2016 is already finished.

    The link below is from walterfootball. That is a site that for some reason in past years I have not held in high regard. But I kind of like the way they handle this FA stuff. Their comments are very interesting and probably have some validity. Anyway here is the list. Sure are plenty of them. Incidentally our guys are in there somewhere too, but I think you need a magnifying glass to find them. (_) ?? What happened to those smilies?

    Totally disagree. We need two new outside corners. Period. We have cornball guys who are hobbits. We need guys with the right measurables for once. No cutting corners this time.

    Good. I want to force Colbert to do the right thing for once and use our first round pick on a cornerback.

    Whoah.... They overpaid IMO. I would have been happy to get him back on a vet minimum deal, but 2/5 is too much for what he brings to the table.

    It depends who is available when we're on the clock. Safety and edge rusher picks are also key for our pass defense. I'm all for prioritizing the pass defense, but not for zoning in on one position for our 1st round pick. Based on my film review, I think it's very possible that only legit Day 2 corners are available at #25. I see Ramsey, Hargreaves and maybe Alexander as the only true 1st round corners so far. After that point, the remaining guys currently show huge flaws on tape. Maybe, just maybe, Apple offers the potential to be worth #25.

    cockrell is 6-0 191 lbs. and runs a 4.44. the only guy in the top 10 of this draft that is over 6-0 is apple at 6-5/8". :cool:

    Yep, and Allen is 6'1", and around 200, and ran a faster 40 than Joe Haden. A big, sucky corner is a big, sucky corner. Give me a talented 5'10" guy over a less talented 6' guy any day.

    Good I didn't want that scrub back with the Steelers anyway, someone needs to sign Blake so he doesn't come back to the Steelers.

    i wonder what gay may get if mccain is signing that kind of deal? would we be better off adding a couple of mil to what we would pay gay and get a really good starter. a guy we can put on a teams #1 and not worry much. i like gay and all but....:cool:

    We will see all 32 teams lining up for the corner with the 2nd worst rating in the NFL :lolol:
    If the Steelers bring that scrub back it will be a travesty and will only stunt the growth of a retooled secondary.

    Yes maybe the Titans overpaid for McCain, but I would have welcomed him with open arms over Blake. This is what we will see if they resign Blake...

    There should be a 4 in parentheses to the left of that 1 on that most burned piece of toast. LOL!

    I disagree. Willie Jackson is worth our first round pick. I'd take him in a heartbeat at # 25. Apple or Jackson.

    For anyone who doesn't know, I believe McCain got picked up by the Titans.
