Terez Paylor mocks us a CB

[RunKC]

All of our losses were to the Broncos, Chargers and Colts.

Our offense was able to score against them. We lost because we couldn't stop their pass offense. And on top of that you have to worry about Tom Brady.

CB being picked at 23 doesn't bother me in the slightest.

Agreed.

And Andy can find a damn good reciever in the mid round. Take a CB or pass rusher. The defense needs more help than our offense.

I'm not sure that CB is necessarily the issue.

Poor LB and FS help were more instrumental in those losses than deficiencies on outside coverage, IMO. Neither Lewis nor Jordan were very effective in providing help on passing downs. I'm trying to think back over the past season and I can't remember Jordan doing much of anything. I'm not sure how much Mays is going to help either in that regard.

That being said, we do need some additional help at the CB position, much in the same manner as we need it at the OLB or OT spots. Starters are fine, but there isn't anything behind them.

However, I'm not sold on spending a first round pick on what is going to amount to a backup for the foreseeable future (3 years or so). The holes at OG, MLB and WR are certainly more demanding of attention.

Are you more comfortable with Joe Mays than Kyle Van Noy?

Are you more comfortable with with Donnie Avery than Marquis Lee/Brandin Cooks/Odell Beckham?

Are you more comfortable with Roke Watkins/Jeff Allen than Gabe Jackson/Xavier S'ua-Filo?

Are you more comfortable with Sean Smith/Brandon Flowers than Bradley Roby?

As Milk has said a couple of times, it wasn't necessarily that our corners or Sutton failed us, it was FS that ultimately led to our demise. (And I'd contend that the other ILB spot manned by Jordan didn't help matters either.)

Now, we will have a healthy Sanders Commings along with the recent signing of Jerron McMillian to go with Husain Abdullah and Eric Berry. In Commings, McMillian and Berry, you've got three guys who run in the mid 4.4's with very good verticals. I think our safety corps will be much improved this next season.
