We need not one, but TWO corners. Rogers is a nickel at best.
Problem is, defensive linemen have the better value for the draft position we're likely to have.

Can't argue w/his history of injuries, the Skins even had concerns when they signed him. But look at the difference w/this D when he's been healthy & when he's not. It's a completely different team w/him.
I say we either draft a cb or sign Clements & get Springs to restructure. I think he can still play & is a team leader. We just need a young dude to step in.
I see us trying to sign Clements, but I really hope we don't pay him so much that we can't keep some of our vets. I know Wynn, Daniels, Springs & Salave are old, but they're also dependable team guys. We definitely need some youth, but not at the expense of losing vets.
