If they were chasing a playoff berth, maybe you fight through crazy pain with every deep breath. But man, as a coaching staff, I’d want to protect him from himself. Yeah especially being a new staff next year, trade rumors....Just take care of yourself for once. I think he has laid enough of himself down for that franchise.

I mean that contract though.... Sure he’s playing extremely well right now but that’s always been him. Extremely inconsistent. He’ll have a stretch like this and then have a stretch of terrible play. For what he’s getting paid, he should be lock down all the time damn near. Still one of worst contracts Robinson has even given out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corner is the most volatile position in the NFL and he's been able to avoid the stretches of "terrible play" that you mention. Was also killing it last year before getting injured edit- adding in this. obviously people only like PFF when it benefits their case, but alas https://www.pff.com/news/pro-tennessee-cb-malcolm-butlers-2018-campaign-was-a-tale-of-two-halves so if Butler had a great second half of 2018, and has played well since when healthy...with this year being his best...he's not worth the money why? these fantasy terrible stretches of play?

Yeah, there’s just no argument for cutting Butler at this point. Fulton has barely played and hasn’t shown anything, Adoree is entering his option year and hasn’t played, cutting Butler would open up a massive hole at corner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitanLegend Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I don't even think his contract is that bad. He's the 14th highest paid corner(in terms of per year) in the league and I think it's fair to say he's largely performed at that level. At least top 20. If I were to say I have a concern, it's the fact that he's 30/will be 31 next year, but that being said he hasn't shown any physical decline yet, so that's a bit premature on my part to worry about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every corner will. It would be nice to see his number come down some, given we want to pay so many of our own guys. But when we tell him to guard a man.....one on one. He has risen to the challenge more times than not. The times he gets in trouble is in zone, because he is so aggressive and his eyes get caught peeking. But yeah, with Fulton not looking so hot yet, Adoree not sure how he is going to respond to this mystery injury and what we have. Butler is a must keep at this point. Having maybe his best season since joining us. I have had my moments of frustration with Butler but can we point to another corner in our secondary with more than one pick right now? Bring King back, Fulton, hopefully Adoree and Butler.....and maybe add another 2nd-3rd round corner. That's a good group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you bring back King, you've invested enough in corner to switch gears and address other holes. King won't cost nothing, Butler and Adoree will get big checks, and Fulton was a recent high draft pick. That's a lot in a single position when we have lots of other holes to address. We need help at almost every other position on defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need help at almost every other position on defense. I think if you're drafting a corner in the 2nd-3rd, there's likely someone that fell unexpected or you're planning to not resign either Butler or Adoree after next year. Corner is said to be one of the hardest positions to transition from college to pro, and they usually aren't great their first year. So if you get them in early to learn, hopefully they would be ready for a bigger role in '22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
