Peppers isn't sliding to Round 2...

Why cut Byrd till you have better in-house?

Reports of Byrd being a problem in the locker room?

Kenny Vaccaro would be a good Free Safety...

As of now, Vonn Bell wasn't worth the move up...

Will Erik Harris get a shot on defense vs coverage teams?

Jamal Adams and Jabrill Peppers are the only two names to know for Day 1...

I'd keep Kenny right where he is at. He has played SAM, WILL, nickel in games and has been extremely effective... very good versatility.

If we can tighten up the corner back position this off season, he can be even more effective at the SS along with his typical WIL/SAM duties. It would be nice if there was someone else who could cover Greg Olsen while Kenny blitzes but I see no one else capable at the moment.

This is one guy I'd extend.

I wouldn't want Peppers at FS, only SS. As far as Vaccarro at FS it would be a disaster waiting to happen. Not so sure he doesn't slide some. I'm not so sure Harper will be back? Byrd, Peppers, Bell and Harris wouldn't be so bad. The only $ are Byrds contract and the rest are on rookie deals. Vaccarro is on a 5th year option and will want $ next season and as far as his total body of work since being drafted he's not worth big money.
