Wow Bush to get 4,5 Mil

I only like this move if Blackmon or Patrick Lee are replaced with a legitimate corner prospect or two. If we have the same group as a year ago, I'm not happy.

If you think Bush is better at ST's than Lee or Blackmon, great, but we need another young prospect to go along with Tramon. Blackmon is the worst corner in the NFL and who knows if Lee is any better. It sure doesn't look like he is.

How are you so sure Lee sucks? He was a rookie last year and didn't get to play. I personally think we are set at corner this year.

Blackmon is a horrible corner (fact)

Bush is a horrible corner (fact)

Lee was a horrible corner last year, had a hard time breaking the starting lineup at Auburn and is said to be strictly a press corner. We're switching to a zone scheme (fact). I highly doubt he pans out to be anything more than a STer and junk. (opinion)

Harris is strictly a press corner and we'll be transitioning to a zone scheme over the next couple years and is also very old (fact)

Woodson is getting older and he's already old (fact)


Tramon Williams is not proven, but he's the closest thing to a long term answer we have on the roster.


We are very far from set at corner.

Blackmon is a horrible corner (fact)

Sorry, but that is just an opinion (yours) which I believe is incorrect.

[Patler]

Bush is a horrible corner (fact)

That is also an opinion, (yours) about which I do not agree because of the vehemence with which you state it. Is Bush a good option now as the 3rd corner? No. The fourth corner? Probably not. The 5th corner? Yes. Many teams would love to have him as their 4th or 5th corner. He would be a strong upgrade for them. Heck he would have been the best option as a 3rd or 4th corner for the Packers just a few years ago. For that reason he is not "horrible", just not 3-deep caliber. But guess what? No one has a starting caliber corner as their #4 or #5, and very few have a starting caliber corner as #3. Some don't even have a starting caliber corner as #2 (see the pre-Woodson Packers).

Way too early to write off Lee. The fact that Lee started only 1 year at Auburn may just mean it will take him a bit longer to develop than a guy who had several years of starting experience. It could also mean he's a guy who needs some time to learn the intricacies of the defense. Plus, there's also a chance that the new defensive coaching staff will prove to be better at developing young players than the previous one.
