Brandon Flowers done















Quote:
Chiefs released CB Brandon Flowers.
Flowers' performance and usefulness in Kansas City slipped dramatically under new DC Bob Sutton last season, as a press-man scheme was installed in the secondary and Flowers failed to find a fit. He wound up mostly at slot corner, and was beaten relentlessly. The Chiefs were trying to trade Flowers, but found no takers for his contract. Flowers had some of the best years of his career under now-Texans DC Romeo Crennel, and cornerback depth is needed in Houston. We wouldn't be surprised to see them reunite. Flowers turned 28 in February.

Quote:
Chargers agreed to terms with CB Brandon Flowers on a one-year contract.
The deal is worth "up to" $5 million and contains $3 million in total guarantees. Despite an anemic 2013 season as a misfit in Bob Sutton's press-man scheme, Flowers found a full bushel of suitors after the Chiefs released him 11 days ago. He lands in a spot where he can immediately rehab his value as a starting corner and then hit the open market again at age 29. Flowers put plenty of really good tape together from 2008-12, and will add borderline Pro Bowl shadow ability to a pass defense that ranked 29th in the league last year. With first-round corner Jason Verrett also added to incumbents Shareece Wright and Richard Marshall, this won't be quite the unit to pick on that it was last season.
He's a Charger now.

Because pass rushers are harder to find than CB's.

Oh yeah I agree. I've always said he's extremely interested physical. That's my point. Him playing in a system that puts him in those positions even more is probably not a great thing for him at this point in his career.

Shouldn't be an issue, as we apparently just drafted the next Derrick Thomas.

This is my issue with it.

If they cut him and don't bother putting the money towards Houston THIS YEAR, they could have waited.

And to be clear, I'm not necessarily upset with the move. I figured he was gone next year. Hali as well. Just not sure why if you're cutting guys who are getting older and losing a step, why Hali is some sacred cow and Flowers is expendable.

Or better yet, if you're just looking to save some money, why Flowers has to go NOW, while guys like Daniel, DeVito, Fasano and Colquitt are making $4M each.

Not a single one of those guys would be missed, and all are ridiculously overpaid.

This is my issue. If we don't extend Houston or Smith with these savings this season, we just cut a good CB for absolutely no reason.

That's incorrect. Under the new CBA they could have cut him sooner and still designated him as a June 1 cut. I believe teams are allowed to do that with 2 players each year. The Chiefs did it with none so the option was available. Waiting this long makes no sense

I'll preface this by saying I'm not 100% sure, but IIRC, the money still stays on your cap until June 1st.

The Cowboys did this with Miles Austin, I believe.

The defense the Chargers called?



Your beloved, all-powerful, unstoppable Cover 3.



Hoo. ****ing. Ray.
The chargers dont play cover 3 press out of the 4-3 under.

Would Flowers make Seattles roster if they could have him for cheap? No becuase they'd take a 6'2 UDFA who can run over him

But yes installing a cover 3 press won't make your defense = to Seattles. Or else the Jags would be the second best D in the league.

The point is that you need the players, and that's how my comments relate to this thread, the players Seattle is choosing in the secondary are large UDFA type CB's
