No. It's already bad. That money should've went to the secondary. Now we'll have to deal with the double whammy of atrocious talent in the backfield along with dumb**** Bob and his "play every CB 5+ yards back" bullshit.

Or we can observe a player’s history in the league and make an educated judgment instead of basing our opinion on hope and what might happen.

I would have rather spent the money on the secondary as well, but I'm not really seeing where it should have went player wise that was on the market. They weren't giving it ot a safety with Berry already on a monster deal. Corner maybe, but man.

I'm excited, but have a lurking bad feeling about this season.

The identity of the team has changed, and yet with all the promise of the potential on offense, it overshadows the fact that the defense is unproven and nothing to suggest that it has improved. I think the whole team will be going through growing pains.

Heres the free agent corners that signed this past offseason. I guess you could have had 2 of them for what Watkins got, but it isn't exactly murders row there.

On who?

Yeah I'd like to see the corner options again. Weren't many options. Would love to have a few of them, don't get me wrong. Wanting them and getting them to sign are different stories.

Also different is comparing Watkins value to our team vs. his value compared to a cornerback. Yes a defensive back would have probably been better for the overall team. That doesn't mean that Watkins doesn't help this team.

What do you mean by “come out and say”?

Seems like they were asked questions and answered.

Jesus Christ how did Malcolm Butler get that much $$?

When questions are getting asked about it, you have to come out and answer it no?

Why do you think there are questions about it at this point?

The FA corner group sucked this year.

They clearly wanted Fuller, but it just wasn’t going to happen without significantly overpaying.

Supply and demand.

I wonder what it would have cost to have gotten him? I never really saw a #

I'm not convinced our secondary is going to be that bad.

They way you said that made it sounds like they started the PC out by saying “Hey guys don’t worry about Watkins, him and Mahomes are starting to sync.

They were asked a question and answered it. What were they supposed to do?
