How much will he cost?
Is he any better than what we already have? If he's our 3rd/4th CB, will he play special teams? |

Oh, and Bills' buyout was $1.3M. Drayton Florence Contract, Salaries, and Transactions I wouldn't be against at least giving him a look-see and a chance to compete for a roster spot, if he would be willing to sign a cap friendly contract. |

Sorry, that's not a real question. The answer is no, no they would not. |

EDIT: 4 Pro Bowls, 3 First Team, Interception leader 2 years running vs. What exactly? A guy who got released by the Bills? |
