While the idea of having both him and G-J on the field at the same time terrorising the opposition sounds great- the sensible man in me wants to see them sign a cheap placeholder FS and try to draft the next long-term solution as FS.

Although, if they plan to replace Jenkins (SS) with him then this could work well if the money-side somehow makes sense.

This defense is no longer elite without Marcus Williams; you're just not going to find another Marcus Williams that easily without enormous score of luck...

And I'd rather that luck in finding that special a player be at quarterback...

Interesting "option" but is Tyrann a Free safety ?

I would have preferred him in New Orleans 4 years ago.

Apparently around a quarter of his snaps were as him lining up as a FS this past season.

He a DB. You can line up pretty much anywhere. I wouldn’t necessarily use him as a center fielder like Marcus Williams though.

That's what I'm getting at.

Marcus has incredible range. I'd hate to lose him but if he gets paid elsewhere, I'll understand.

Wouldn't understand letting him go...
