If we have unused cap space left going into this season, while a guys available that has the potential to be a playmaker, SPEND THE DAMN MONEY.

I'm really kind of ambivalent about Law right now.
I have difficulty believing that the Chiefs will sign him.
However, assuming, for the sake of argument, that Carl does bring Law in, I just don't think that putting Warfield at nickel is a very good idea.
He struggled for 3 years in Spinner's scheme because he wasn't able to line up at the LOS and man up on the receivers.
I was one of the few that defended him in those years, because I recognized that Spinner didn't utilize his strengths.
Putting him at nickel will put him in a position that again exposes his weakness, and he'll revert back to the "Toast" that everyone labeled him.
On the other hand, McPassOn played well in Spinner's scheme, and is much better suited for the nickel than Warfield.
IMO, if Law were brought in, Warfield becomes an expensive benchwarmer by midseason.
That, or he is really crisp by seasons end.
