DRAFT Welcome to New England - Wake Forest CB Karon Prunty (5th round, #171)

[p8ryts]

Is Woods really so good he’s the presumptive top backup even before training camp? At a quick glance I’m not seeing anything distinguishing him from Vildor.

Never impressed with Woods.

I dunno, Woodson and Byard seems pretty settled at safety to me.

I agree with you. Vrabel is fine with the starters and with Pettus as the backup safety.

However, we were looking for a future serious contributor at safety. Some here see the situation as similar to TE where we had a solid 2 with Henry being a free agent (same situation as Byard).

If Stukes (or similar) were there at 95, I think that Safety would have been the choice in a heartbeat.

With the signing of Byard, this is a "next year" problem, to me.
