Would that give us a matching number of CBs and safeties? Anyone for a 1-10 defense? That would keep our DL verrrry fresh...

If we can afford him, **** yeah.

We don't have the cap space and the secondary is already crowded; I don't think it's a good idea

Somebody will overpay for his services. It won't be us.

Probably the Lions, they coincidentally released Chris Houston at the same time, are in the market & they love to overpay their guys,

I agree with this. Detroit would be an ideal landing spot for Flowers. And the Lions released Houston because he couldn't cut it anymore at CB.

As far as the Saints, I think Rob Ryan is going to play press coverage most of the time, and I don't think Flowers is press man corner (he is better in zone or off-man). So I don't think we could make use of his services.

Yeah, even though I voted, "the more, the merrier" when I look at the Saints secondary, there's a group of guys that'll get the job done ... Wk #7 is gonna' come down to "whom can cover whom" & the Lions come up a bit short in that matchup, IMO. Having cap-issues of their own to contend with has prevented them from addressing their secondary woes up to this point. Woulda' like to have seen them make a play for Bailey or someone of that caliber, they definitely need some help at CB.
