Look, you really only have three-four guys per position in the NFL, so versatility at multiple positions is where real value is...

Honey Badger was playing safety to likely justify the money committed...

But if you look at recent Cardinals nickel packages, Mathieu is covering in that slot...

He’s like Vacarro. Just way better.

I don’t know how I feel about Coleman though.

If Coleman is healthy, he is good. Period. He will help us. He has very good ball skills. He can cover a TE and most RBs. He can tackle.He's a smart, savvy veteran. Kenny Vaccarro doesn't have any 9 pick seasons. Coleman does and he's not old. He'll look great in Black and Gold! If we could pull off Tyrann Mathieu too.................We can always dream. If we signed Mathieu Id be buyin my first NFL jersey immediatetly. At the NFL combine, Deion Sanders claimed that hands down Tyrann Mathieu had better ball skills than any other player in the draft. Yea. He could be a nice piece. If he's your nickel corner, you're feeling pretty good. In theory don't we hope our starting safeties are Bell ans Williams. Im sold on Marcus Williams. He is awesome. Are we sold on Von Bell?

Numbers don't lie but they can be misleading

If you're talking about Tyrann Mathieu, and if my memory is serving me correctly, Jimmy Graham beat him repeatedly when he was with us.

When considering my memory...

Just sayin'...

For the stat guys ...

Coleman has been penalized once in 3 years. One time.

I agree, that's disciplined /smart football by Kurt.

Y'all need to pay attention to that stat that Major cited - it's HUGE...

If you're watching the games, you should know we play more Heavy Nickel than any other package...

In fact, we play it more than any other including what was considered our base set of 4-3 under...

And in short - this is our year - no short-changing it now; we need quality depth for a deep run...

That's why I'm banging the table for front seven and interior line...

We've got the starters across the board, but we know injuries happen...

We had nearly 20 starters, impact players go to IR, and we came within one play of a Championship Game...

You're gonna tell me just one of those 20 couldn't have kept if from coming down to what it did?
