    I agree about that but not many teams pay for 2 #1 CBs. If Verrett takes #2 money than sure. But still hes as fragile as it they get. And Hayward may end up being one of the highest paid CBs. If you draft James you then have potentially 3. I just think the money could be spent elsewhere.

        Some questions

        what could the Bolts get for Verrett?

        could they get a deal done before this years draft?

              We have Verrett for another year before a decision has to be made so all of this talk is premature.

              we had this same talk about Ingram.

              My opinion, you work to keep your talent and take the injury history into account when negotiating contracts.
              Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

                Well i dont know if id want Bennett but next year we wont be able to trade Verrett, he will be a FA. Id be perfectly fine trading him now. He hasnt contributed much to this team with his injuries and we can draft another CB. There were 42 CBs at the combine, which i think they said was the most they have had.
                Bama's Fitzpatrick looks to able to play both Safety and CB and has pretty damn good hip turn. King also can play both and we have Micheal Davis hopefully getting better.

                I would actually like to trade Verrett now, save some cap space and get a pick for him. He just cant stay healthy.

                  Remember,,,,,i said Verrett for Earl Thomas. lol I dont know how you dont do that trade. The scenario was.....


                  SS - Derwin James
                  FS = Earl Thomas
                  CB - Casey Hayward
                  CB - Trevor Williams
                  Slot - Desmond KIng

                  And James can play CB with Addae at SS.

                    God no to Bennett. He has talent, but is a knucklehead who I'd have a really hard time rooting for.

                      But why would SEA do that trade? They'd be getting another older guy with a bigger contract coming up for renewal next year. And losing a talented, productive guy for an oft injured, talented guy.

                      Everything comes down to Verrett being able to stay healthy.

                        I think Thomas was slightly disgruntled with Sea, hence asking Cowboys to “come get me”.

                      As of now, I'm not seeing Derwin James, Edmunds, or Roquan Smith falling to 17. I'd say our top options at 17 will be Payne and Vea, and Hurst, if his health checks out favorably.

                      As for the secondary, Hayward should get paid (at least $9M per in his next deal), Addae is getting $4M to $5M per, if Boston is retained at $7M to $8M per, and Verrett is at ~$8M for next year, it seems too rich to tie up that much cap in those players. The secondary played pretty well without Verrett last yr, and I think we can find a capable replacement for Boston at a more reasonable salary, if not already on the roster in Jenkins, and the safety position is deep in this draft, too. I hope the biggest emphasis is placed on building up the D line this offseason. A better D line= a better secondary.

                      If Verrett can be traded, I would definitely do it.

                          Yeah, especially with our play on the line of late, would not suck to choose between those dudes.
