Corn Elder is back

[Zod]

 

 

Corn is a decent nickel. Gives options to replace injured harstfield.

Joey slye up next.

Good signing, familiar with the scheme from last year I think

[therealmjl]

Not mad at this.

He actually looked like he belonged last year, which a contrast to how he looked his first couple years under Rivera.

[Jon Snow]

Why?  He's not...well he just is not an improvement anywhere.  I guess the depth in the secondary is worse than I thought.

I guess they were just looking for someone familiar with the system to step in on an as needed basis (aka in case of emergency).

Worth remembering we get AJ Bouye activated for Week 3 (I think it was only a 2 game suspension, right?) as well, which will be huge.

Corner depth getting thin with Hartsfield missing time

He's not familiar with the system as far as I can tell.  When was he cut the last time? I thought he'd been gone a couple of seasons at least?  Hell I can't keep up anymore.

No, he played shockingly halfway decent last season. Like, it was weird and I don't blame you for not remembering that little nugget.

The only reason I remember is because I had completely written him off as well. We just cut him for the first time (under Rhule at least) this season. From an SI article:

His usage on defense was fairly nonexistent during his first two years but appeared on 411 snaps last year in 16 games.

Damn, I thought he was let go when Rhule got here.  Talk about disappearing.

Does he play Offensive Coordinator?

Hartsfield is hurt and Bouye is still suspended. Yeah, we're thin right now.
