If we can't or won't trade and there isn't much out in free agency then the answers must come from the roster.

For me I'd make statements, bench CJ and swap Ealy to RDE and start Edwards on the left side, it cannot be any worse surely and it'll send a message to vets that if you ain't working you ain't playing.

At the DT cut Soliai he is terrible! Love shown more yesterday than he has since he got here.

Corners, Bradberry will be ok, he's the best of a bad bunch at this point, Bene is god awful.. Bench him and roll with McLain, both guys will be burned but if that's the best we got what can you do.

Safeties, switch Coleman back to FS not only bench but cut Boston, he's had like three years to show something other than the odd pick. If we don't sign anyone like a Whitner, here's an idea possibly crazy but watching Boston play is it that crazy? plug Cash in at Safety whether it be FS or SS with Coleman, he played the position at college I know his size was the issue at pro level but can he be any worse? Has speed and power to make hits, be interested to see what he can do given game time not like he's going to get a shot at LB is it.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.

      Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
