Great year for Safety Free Agents
 

Personally I'd like to see Jairus Byrd as a Patriot. William Moore is an underrated player. Goldson we already tried signing a couple years ago and couldn't get him. Glover Quinn isn't amazing, but he's a solid Safety.

Jairus Byrd, S, Bills. Age: 26.
Jairus Byrd is one of the top safeties in football. He shuts everything down in coverage - he was responsible for no touchdowns all year - and he constantly comes up with turnovers. He's also decent in run support and is seldom penalized. He deserves a massive contact.

Dashon Goldson, S, 49ers. Age: 28.
Dashon Goldson had some issues in coverage back in 2011, but did what he needed to do to correct them this past season. Goldson made the Pro Bowl for good reason.

Ed Reed, S, Ravens. Age: 34.
Ed Reed will turn 35 in September, but he still played at a high level for the Ravens this past season despite battling an injury.

Louis Delmas, S, Lions. Age: 26.
Louis Delmas is one of the most talented safeties in the NFL, but he just can't stay healthy. He's missed 13 games in the past two seasons.

Glover Quin, S, Texans. Age: 27.
A converted cornerback, Glover Quin has starred in his new safety role over the past couple of years. He was particularly sound in 2012, so he deserves a nice contract.

William Moore, S, Falcons. Age: 28.
William Moore missed the final quarter of the season with a hamstring injury, but he performed extremely well in all facets otherwise.

Kenny Phillips, S, Giants. Age: 26.
Kenny Phillips is one of the better safeties when healthy, but he missed most of 2012 with a knee injury.

Stevie Brown (RFA), S, Giants. Age: 26.
Stevie Brown was impressive in relief of an injured Kenny Phillips, picking off eight passes. His one weakness is run support.

LaRon Landry, S, Jets. Age: 28.
No one wanted LaRon Landry last offseason. He was considered an injury waiting to happen. Well, he proved everyone wrong with a solid 2012 campaign. He should still be considered fragile, but he has definitely earned himself a nice contract.

Chris Clemons, S, Dolphins. Age: 27.
Chris Clemons proved to be a quality starting safety for the Dolphins this past year. He was penalized only twice, though he had trouble tackling on occasion.

reed isn't going anywhere

quin is nice..but may be more $$ that we want to pay

Re: Great year for Safety Free Agents
 

BB paid a mid-round draft pick for Aqib Talib to play just a handful of games here.

He's also blown a ton of draft picks on failed DBs (Wheatley, Butler, Chung, Dowling, Meriweather)


It's obvious he wants to get the secondary fixed. I think he will do as much as he can to sign a good DB.

Re: Great year for Safety Free Agents
 

which leads me to believe he will have a contract extension with the pats

Re: Great year for Safety Free Agents
 

sure but we still gave up a decent pick for Talib to just play a few games

Re: Great year for Safety Free Agents
 

Byrd isn't happening. The Pats are perfectly fine at FS.

Re: Great year for Safety Free Agents
 

Yeah, if the Bills don't franchise him anyway, they are even more dysfunctional than we think.

Re: Great year for Safety Free Agents
 

Ed Reed please, that or Bryd. Let McCourty play CB, then we would have 3 solid CBs (Talib resigned).

Another name to add to the list would be Adrian Wilson..he will most certainly released this off season
