    Bucs released him. Lake coached him a year at UCLA, wonder if the steelers could get him as insurance in case Golson goes down again. Still only 28.

    My recollection is that his play went downhill significantly over the past 2-3 seasons. He was a really solid player in Tennessee, but then... poof

    I have not paid much attention to him since he signed with the Bucs but I remember when he was a FA I liked him. Is he a slot of outside right now and if we bring him in what does that mean for Gay or Cockrell?

    Our D philosophy limits our ability to woo free agent corners. We play 3 guys. If you look right now....Burn, Cockrell, and Gay. Unless you are told you can compete for a job with one of those guys, why are you coming here? I think we may have interest, but sometimes our stubbornness with sticking with our main guys limits the option of bringing in UFAs.

    Your right and I am hoping that will change, Gay has been great for us but his speed is becoming an issue, jmo.

    He's 5-10 180 are we going that route again? If they offer him a vet mini 1 year tender thats fine, but I dont think he merits any more than that.......

    Kayvon Webster with the Broncos would have some allure for me.
