And after Lewis?

We haven't signed any safety depth this free agent period. We're going to need to get some guys in the draft, and I'd like to see them invest pretty heavily, actually. We need a quality player to back up. I'm sick of McGraw and Pissycat****y

Routt gave up how many touchdowns last year?

Sure would be nice to have a playmaker playing right behind him....especially if SR goes down and Brown gets thrust into the starters role.

The kid is a damn good player that would be on the field a lot.

Don't forget, Berry is coming off an ACL and Lewis has missed games both years with us.

A guy like Barron would make this defensive secondary scary as hell.

we should draft a corner, wait for him to get good, then let him walk in FA

Completely agree that the Chief's need to improve at safety and I think they will with a lower cost free agent or maybe a mid round draft pick.

I think Barron could be a real possibility. We've already added insurance for Charles and Moeaki with Hillis and Boss, so I think we could look to help Berry out at safety as well.

Barron makes no ****ing sense.

Berry plays like 95% of our defensive snaps, and will be a Chief for 10 years.

An insurance policy isn't worth the #11 overall.

Corner is different -- we can let Routt go after a season or two if we have to.

We're not letting Berry go anywhere, ever.

:spock: They can play at the same time, and be awesome.

CB Casey Hayward from Vanderbilt looked good in the Senior Bowl practices and game. Good or bad, he has a lot of the qualities that Pioli looks for in the draft. Good SEC player, team captain, Senior Bowl standout, good vertical and broad jump, etc..

He's projected to be a 3rd round pick.

Jalil Brown seems to have Chiefs fans really liking him or hating him. He has a lot of good physical attributes but when I've watched him in practice and games, he seems to get beat a lot or does a lot of holding and grabbing the receiver to keep from getting beat.

I hope Jalil doesn't end up being another Donald Washington.

that ss from notre dame looked pretty good at the combine. never watched his tape or anything though. definitely looked like an upgrade to mcgraws dumb ass though

Drafting Barron and moving Berry to FS (which I think would fully utilize his talents) is intriguing.

Neither is a natural center fielder.

Yup. Certainly someone to keep an eye on.

Sheesh.

Why don't we just move Albert to RT.

Berry played FS his first two years in college and racked up 12 interceptions.
