Even before the PRob retirement, coach SP was calling CB a must. Not to mention Prince A looking like a guy who has bounced around teams the last couple of seasons. I would have given Dre' Kirkpatrick a shot before signing Amukamura.

I think we'll add another vet CB after final cuts have been made across the league.

As for Lattimore and any possible suspension, I believe it is based upon if and/or when there is a legal hearing. According to a legal analyst on NFL Radio, can't remember who, the manner in which the league is now handling player discipline depends upon whether or not it is a criminal issue. He gave an example of a player who's preliminary hearing is not scheduled until next February and how the league will not rule on any discipline until then. Lattimore could fall under that category. I've searched but have yet to find anything on any hearing to date.
