A player like Chris McAllister, Samari Rolle, or Ty Law could come in here and make a positive impact. Filling the roll of the crafty vetran, who can cover the slot and spell Landry at Free Safety on occasion. All I'm worried about is a repeat of the last play of the Rams game last year, when tryon got burned on a game winning play ughh!

I believe Rolle is on the Ravens and I think we're good at corner and we don't need Law or McAllister for the one or two more years that they may be able to play. McAllister hasn't had a healthy year in a long time and Law hasn't played all that well since 2005. If they get put on the roster there's no guarantee a guy like Westbrook won't get picked up off the practice squad and we could lose a good young player. Also if they're on the roster and they get injured then we're short a good player. Lose reps in practice as well. Just overall don't think it's worth it bc I think we have a very solid secondary. Also, I'd much rather have Kareem Moore spelling Landry. I think Tryon will move another spot down on the depth chart and he's improved a lot according to Jerry Gray.
