Quintin Mikell?

I was shocked that nobody has mentioned Quintin Mikell as a possible FA signing, I know Woodson is one of the best to ever play his position but Mikell is 4 years younger, would cost less and is probably a safer pickup.

I don't see why we would contact Woodson then.

 

I'm sure we have contacted a whole lot of players that we just didn't know about. You contact players to feel them out, see what they are asking, and decide whether that makes your team better, not just now but in the future (cap hits).

It's a dangerous game to play if you bring in Woodson just to see if he can impart some wisdom here or there. I would be the first to buy his jersey, but I only want the guy if he can play. If he can't offer him a consultant job or bring him in as a intern secondary coach. Neither of those options effect cap space or roster spots.

What happened to Mikell? He got a huge payday and what? Now he's available? Weird...

The Rams cut him as part of a cap move. Mikell graded out i believe as a top 5 safety last year. The Rams supposedly want him back at a lower number. Mikell might not want to do that.

I dont agree.

Mikell>Woodson>>>>>Rhodes

Rhodes plays when he wants too. Kind of a diva. Woodson is talented, a great leader, and a future hall of famer. Mikell only has the edge on him from an age standpoint.

 

As a diva, I agree. But, as an overall FS Rhodes has the nod over Woodson.

Woodson hasn't been great the last two years. He's been beaten in coverage pretty badly, but his ability to create turnovers made people look past that.

 

Woodson would be a nice addition to this team, but he's more of a "nickle" CB/FS than a true FS. Rhodes has the ability to stand in the backfield and solidify the secondary.

Do you know what kind of contract Rhodes is looking for? I think that will play in the direction the Panthers will take.

Nope, but at this point of time Rhodes, Woodson, Mikell, or any other FAs isnt going to get what theyre looking for. The market is so much different today than 3-4 years ago. I would think that we could grab which ever one we want out of those three guys on 1yr 3-4 mil contract. Theyre not going to get anything more than that elsewhere especially if on a competitive, SB contender. Those players would have to take less to be on a Denver, NE, SF, etc team.
