I don't have the number in front of me but I believe Los was targeted as many times as Hall, if not more. Though I may be mixing up years. But anyhow, the best corners do win games. And Rogers wants to be paid like one of the best
But he doesn't want top 30 money. If he did, I suppose he'd be totally happy with his salary
I don't begrudge him wanting to get money

I don't dislike Kevin Barnes as an option, but as an every down starting CB I don't feel very comfortable going into the season with him opposite D Hall. I've been wrong before and I'll be wrong again, but I think it's a major downgrade. I like Barnes in the nickle right now.
You talk about targets which is a clever way of avoiding the question. I'm asking when 'Los was beat where it was a big play costing the skins the game. Targets are one thing, but big completions are another. Most of the completions on Carlos are short and stopped quickly.
If he wants top CB money, then I understand letting him walk. I think his market price is much higher than fans here seem to think. I think he's a 15-20CB in my eyes. I understand if we let him go because of financial reasons, but I think we underestimate what he brings to the table.
