He has history with Flores in NE so would think there is a good chance of him signing here. Every year it seems like we are trying to fill holes at CB, when is the last time we went into the season with 3 solid CBs or at least 2?

Likely age and cost. 5X Pro Bowler, but he'll be 34 in September. He's done 1-year stints with three different teams the last three years. But his PFF coverage grade was pretty respectable in each of those years (72, 81, 79), and he can tackle. For us he could maybe slot in under Murph and Griff and compete with Evans for CB3.

I think he slots in pretty evenly with both Murphy and Griffin.

Little birdie told me this is a done deal. Much needed. He's 33 but its a one year rental which is fine.

Sure, assuming there's no further decline, which I don't think is a very safe assumption with him teetering on the cliff at 34.

Griffin’s old as well, and I don’t think Murphy was ever at their caliber. That being said you could be 100% right and he just is done. I don’t sense that with him, though.
