I'd move Flowers to FS. We signed three big corners last year and I don't Flowers fits anymore. It's obvious we are modeling ourselves after Seattle and he could play that Earl Thomas role. He's smart, sticks to assignments, and can tackle. He's fast enough. Hell, Byrd only ran a 4.66 forty at the combine. FS is about smarts and positioning more than speed imo. I think he could do it. Cooper, Smith, Shields, Flowers, and Berry would be a nice nickel package.

Shields is an outside corner, not a nickle CB. He plays the same spot that Sean Smith plays. I'd take a look at Brown too. If you want a great nickle corner then go after Munnerlyn.
