It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I remember in the SB when Gay went out I realized we had no #4 CB and Meriweather would have to play the slot WR if Gay didn't make it back. Although he can do that, I'd prefer a #4 CB (I guess that would have been Chad Scott but he got hurt again and is now a UFA) especially if Meriweather is going to get more time at Safety.But to answer the Gay question ( <---LOL) they didnt really use anyone else at corner. They relied heavily on there safety play with Wilson and Meriweather. Spann and Andrews never had a chance.

I'm good with Hobbs. I'm good with the Buffalo guy replacing Gay. I'm good with adding Poteat as a #4 guy. That leaves Samuel to be replaced in the draft whether it's at #7, mid first round after a trade down or with a Chevis Jackson type in round 3 to 4.
Funny... I was also thinking of O T I S
If a Hank-bona-Poteat discussion get three pages...you know our Defense is going to suck in 2008.
Forgot about him. If we had Hobbs, Law, new guy from Buffalo and Poteat I'm not sure they'd even draft a CB as 5 is kind of a lot.Still dont count out Law. He might be another guy they bring in to play part time and maybe help along any rookies we may have.

Yeah, we've shot our FA wad already for the most part. We're taking a hit at CB from Samuel, that's just how it is. The ace in the hole is still the #7 pick which should bring us a top talent at some position. But re-signing Moss was the key, it means that if the OL doesn't blow chunks and barring major injuries, we'll score 27+ every game.O come on bro. What do you want? We dont have 20+ million to throw at high end players and we are going to need youth and depth from the draft you need low end/low risk guys to A) fill out the roster and B) add quality depth.

My concern is BB bringing in Poteat in place of Law, I hope that's not what their plan is here.
Could well be - Kaczur could also move inside. I still wouldn't be shocked if we draft Clady or Otah to play RT and possibly move to LT in a year or two.I still expect a rehaul of the right side of our O-Line. I think Neal might be replaced and Kaczur might be looked to be upgraded.
Hank Poteat is junk just like Jason "Eric Warfield/Tory James" Webster. Not complaining, BB can throw it all at the wall and see what sticks. But let's not fool ourselves.
The draft has a lot of good cornerbacks but they are one year away from starting.
How do you know? Hobbs was starting midway through the season as a rookie; if you're arguing that these cornerbacks are better than Hobbs, why shouldn't they be ready to start, at worst, midway through the season?
Poteat....ehh...this might seem contradictory to what I just said in the Seward thread, but in this case, I'd rather earmark a spot for a draft pick to make the team. Camp fodder I spose.
Been there done that.One question
Why Not?
