It makes sense for a number of reasons. While its easy to point out perceived needs, future proofing the team is as important as anything. This team may be the most intact Super Bowl winner I can remember, so they have the luxury to literally have the freedom to take just about anybody they want, vs filling holes.
So if they can get a guy to be a returner as he learns the route tree to be an eventual replacement for a guy like Sammy, that's a pretty seamless transition in a year or so.
I will say I would like to see them get Ruiz, I think he makes a lot of sense.
