Not sure what his cap number is this year, but it has to be 6 million+, meaning there is no way we can afford him.  Another small corner who struggles to play face to face with his man.  The next generation of corner is 6+ feet and strong, Seattle is showing that, and in a division with Vincent Jackson, Colston, Graham, and Julio, that should be more evident then ever.

Idk what his salary is, and may be getting paid too much, but the guy is a beast corner

 

From the link...

 

Flowers struggled mightily in DC Bob Sutton's press-man scheme last season, grading out as a bottom-15 cover corner at PFF. He allowed a 66.7 percent completion rate, 846 yards, and four touchdowns in his coverage, while QBs had a 103.9 rating throwing at him. Flowers has three years left on a six-year, $49.35 million deal and may be difficult to move. At 5-foot-9 and 187 pounds, he's best suited to fill the slot role.

Also rumored that the Chiefs are having great difficulty signing Alex Smith to new deal and could be interested in a QB.  Probably just smoke.

 

Smith has probably already agreed to a deal, but they are keeping under wraps until after the draft just to add intrigue and misdirection

It shows what his salary is.

Do you think he's worth that kind of salary?

(money the team doesn't have to spare, by the way)

No not the salary. I understand that perspective.

I think he is a good CB and is worth good CB money. He is being paid great CB money. Especially considering our financial situation, and the physical defense we play, he isn't a good fit here.

A reasonable contract and the right system, and he is a top 10 corner.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
