Unfortunately Chris, #20 is Crawley

Swann is #27

I'll cut the corner some slack ... Michael did that very same move on Richard Sherman last season.

Unfortunately I think we may have to. Substitute Jones, Evans, Jackson, or Benjamin for Thomas and it gets pretty easy to see why it's important to hold our DBs accountable against excellent or elite receivers.

I could not agree more. Depth at the position has been pathetic every year. It's not the fans fault. The FO and Payton seem to make things seem fine when we actually know better. Allen was the secondary coach back and I still say if it wasn't for Sharper he wouldn't even be on the map. Now as a DC he seems unable to make the secondary a strong point of this D.

In the FO defense it's not like they haven't tried to do something about the secondary. They just took the FA approach and have failed horrendously. From injury to players like Browner it just never pans out. I think the pieces are there for us to have a pretty good home grown secondary. I'm just hoping it clicks for them sooner rather than later. If I thought we could count on Breaux I would feel better about it. I haven't even put Lattimore into the equation because until he gets healthy what's the point.

Oh and can we please stop acting like Payton is telling the truth when he says a player has a "minor" injury?

Two weeks later and here's our first round pick still on the bench. But yea Payton never lies.
Having a positive attitude about that one sure made him heal faster

Payton said he tweaked his knee... One of the reporters (I don't remember who) said it was a sprain. Lattimore was out there today at practice stretching and jogging. Seems like it was all pretty straightforward and the correct amount of recovery time.
