I'd say those are 8 locks on 9 positions. Commings could stay healthy and still lose his job, IMO. I listened to an interview with Reid where he named about 12 DBs including a couple guys I'd never heard of but never mentioned Commings. I think he's out of sight, out of mind at this point. Unless he flat out takes a job, I don't think he wins any ties at anymore.
Cooper's best bet to survive may be trying to make that same swing CB/Safety conversion that Parker made. I'd say he has the physical tools to do it. If Parker goes down, it's not as though Abdullah or Branch could really play a single-high so why not have Cooper as your 4th safety? I think he could actually do a credible job back there if he got comfortable in the role.
EDIT: Looks like Frosty beat me to it.

Wasn't Abdulah playing single high next to Berry some? Not saying it is a good idea. Hopefully Cooper can live up to his potential. If that's at safety, fine. I'd love to have 4.3 speed at single high.
