I don't really have a cogent organized argument to back this up, but I have a feeling this is going to happen.
It is eerily similar to Eugene Wilson, in timing, in position change and in skillset of the players.
We have no clue about what events led to Meriwhether being cut, after BB accepted his limitations for 4 years. IMO, coverage has been the biggest issue at the safety position, and I don't see cutting the best cover guy to replace him with a big hitter who appears to be more the strong safety type (Barrett) or a guy who has struggled in coverage as a rookie (Brown).
Dowling seems to fit the bill, perhaps if he hadn't missed preseason games this would be easier to project. We know from Wilson that a one week conversion is possible.
Thoughts?
