You have the money to add a piece to your secondary to help solidify with the young 2nd year Cb's on your team.. Maybe add some vet mentorship to that room..

Who do you go with .. Understanding certain situations with each player..

A. Stephon Gilmore - Will cost money that can be used for other players...  Young entering his prime and has strong area ties..

B. Tramon Williams - Cheaper not as establish as Gilmore.. Would come in and compete with Worleys more or less..

C. Sam Sheilds - older vet with injury history but would provide more of a vet presence than the other 2. Probably cheaper as well..

D. Captain - Fan favorite true leader .. But only a nickle cb..

Who do you choose??

I go with Captain. I think we're committed to rolling with Bradberry and Worley outside and Captain is a very good nickel which is exactly what we need if we're committed to Bradberry and Worley. Given the youth of those two guys, I'd prefer to address the nickel position and SS through FA. Not sure about throwing more inexperienced players on the files in that secondary.

Would love to get Gillmore. But will be too much to have. 

Captain would make the most sense just bc of the price. 

Would like a Morris Claiborne, Kirkpatrick or Nolan Carroll. 

However, probably make more sense taking a younger guy in the 2nd or 3rd to play nickle. 

Desmond King fits our defense a lot. A zone corner. At 40 if he's there and you like him.

I'm drafting a guy. Maybe two if the value is there later in the draft. I'm not paying a fading veteran when I can draft equal or better talent to groom for the future.

Agree.  Cam Sutton in the 3rd.  Better football player, incredible value in a deep CB draft, and much cheaper.

Can Worley play nickel? I think he's an outside guy, not a nickel/slot guy, so I'd rather go after a nickel guy like Captain. There are also a ton of good CBs in this draft, including some that specifically have been bucketed in a nickel role.

Hes too big to be a nickel. And he's not the most agile guy. Bradberry would be a better nickel.

I also don't understand drafting another one. We have two one year veterans. Why add more inexeperience to that and risk it not panning out? at least even if the veteran blows, he can mentor.

I have to agree with RUmHam.. I don't see the reasoning in adding another inexeperience player when you just draft 3 last year..

I choose vets to add experience and mentorship to that room ..

I can def see drafting a SS to pair with Coleman but another young cb isn't a great idea without seeing what you have with the 3 last year.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      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.
