But regardless, we proably need 2 CB's between day 1 draft picks and FA's.
I agree Sanders and Merriweather could become serviceable Safeties. They may never make the pro bowl but should be capable starters. I don't see Merriweather being a good fit a CB, based on the limited looks fo far his strength is tackling, in coverage his angles are off and hips a little stiff. Good FS potential, low CB potential.
At least two CBs will have to be brought in, 2 of our top 3 are free agents (Samuel, Gay). Maybe they are extended or re-signed but if not the secondary is going to look completely different next year.
Why do you like these CBs so much? The appear to be bigger more physical CBS where as in the past the Patriots have leaned towards smaller faster CBs - Samuel, Hobbs, Gay, Poole, Starks (uggg...)
