so-
you know, I posted earlier that this isn't MLB and a small market team has a tiny window to compete so you absolutely spend all possible capital to make use of that window, it's the NFL and so you have a window as long as you have a franchise QB.
That being said, taking a page from the Royals playbook here-there was a lot of talk last offseason about how the Safety position was 'devalued' and corners were what all the teams were spending the money on, drafting their safeties instead. AND-offensive yardage is way, way up league-wide. Perhaps the NFL was remiss.
IF the problem is not scheme, it would appear that Sutton's scheme as it currently exists is dependent on excellent Safety play. Maybe it'd be worth it to have the hands-down no contest best safety tandem in football.
