    Wouldn't it be nice to have a cornerback with actual ball skills?

    Thinking about it a Kendall Fuller in the 3rd round would have really been ideal. Was high on him but injury concerns scared them.

    I think you guys expecting a first round CB next year are going to be disapointed. Neither the Pats nor LeBaeu Steelers prioritize CBs. Pats only drafted McCourty who is a safety for them and I don't think Steelers ever signed or drafted any big CBs.

    An elite FS could help, but I think Byard is being groomed for the centerfield role. More importantly is we need a dynamic speed pass rusher who can get to the QB while DLB's zone schemes stall for enough time. In the mold of Garrett (pls god) or Charles Harris perhaps.

    A play making ILB or SS who can play the middle of the field is also a piece I'm sure they're looking for.

    Cuts are coming soon. Surely to hell there is a better CB being cut than some of the ones we have.

    We really dominated them. Both lines destroyed theirs....just preseason.

    Maybe. I could see an overpaid vet getting the boot somewhere, adding somebody to at least challenge Cox, McCain for some PT would do wonders. Wouldn't get your hopes up though, CBs are slim pickens.

    CB needs to be a focus in next year's draft. One under-the-radar prospect is Kevin King from Washington. Keep an eye on him this year. Washington recently has produced some great corners, like Desmond Trufant and Marcus Peters. I see Kevin King as the next one.
