Of the candidates:

Walt Harris - has starting experience with the Bears, and was overqualified as a mickel back last year. Not as dynamic as Smoot, but no slouch. Also relatively inexpensive.

Darnell Wilds - Undrafted rookie free agent with promise, but no guarantee he can handle the full-time nickel role, much less starting CB.

Ade Jimoh - In a recent poll of DC-area school age children, was voted the most popular #23 in sports, beating Michael Jordan, LeBron James, and others. Still no threat to start, but a fun tidbit.

Antrell Rolle (no relation to Samari) - Gibbs typically doesn't start rookies, and the draft hasn't happened yet. If the team drafts him, expect him to start the season on the bench, and work his way off.

Also, look for late cuts on the free agent market (I can't figure out why Andre Dyson isn't getting some action out there).
