    I was giving them big time credit last year until the end of season TOMLIN swoon. I like the D if healthy just think the secondary is very questionable especially in Nickel and Dime packages

    Jury is still out on all this. Just hope the damn injury bug is a minimum this season.

    Not unless they clear some salary cap space first.

    Reached too far with the 2nd best cb statement. I guess Ike is in your doghouse.

    Not unless they cut someone else or he accepts league minimum, which I highly doubt he would do. He can simply wait for an injury at camp and sign with a desperate team.

    Yes, yes he is. One of my most hated corners all time.

    TBH I don't think the base secondary looks rough at all. As long as Haden's play doesn't fall off a cliff it should be pretty good. Sutton is going to get his chance to shine and he really has played well when called upon. Minkah is a dawg, and Edmunds is steady and unspectacular. We need to find our answer at slot CB. Maybe one of the rookies takes the position and runs. Maybe Sutton plays some slot and Pierre has a shot. The only spot I think we are weak is the back up S situation, but it looks like we signed that Maulet kid to fill that role. Some questions marks, but overall we should feel pretty good about it. I would expect us to have a top 5 defense again as long as we stay healthy.

    I wouldn't be so sure about Bince starting over Spillane...Bince was cut and brought back for pennies on the dollar
