Id be fine with both. Would have to see if Reid can be more a FS and not a clone Landon Collins.

Trufant a 70.3
The Falcons intercepted Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston twice in the first half of Sunday’s game, but they weren’t able to capitalize, eventually losing by double-digits.
Cornerback Desmond Trufant picked off Winston on his first pass attempt, and the QB smartly started looking elsewhere. While Winston would throw for 313 yards and three touchdowns, Trufant wasn’t the issue, as he mostly held WR Mike Evans in check.
Pro Football Focus gave Atlanta’s top corner the highest coverage grade of anyone in the league for Week 12. Trufant received a 91.2 grade, the second-best coverage rating of his career:
Desmond Trufant's elite coverage grade yesterday of 91.2 was the highest among all defensive players thus far in week 12.

Trufant played 9 games last year, any lingering injury issue?
Lucky Falcons have cap issues, otherwise i dont think he is made available.
