You are starting to venture into top 15-20 paid safeties in the league then. Not sure he's getting that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the flip side, it looked like the light really came on for him in the playoffs as far as being a center fielder type of safety. I want him back and want to sign Jordan Whitehead, then draft a guy in round 2-3. I want an immediate and significant upgrade at both spots ultimately. However the staff does that is fine by me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think Savage can be that for one position with the right coach, scheme. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still a super valuable player and worth that contract because of his production and consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoekd0250 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I think we really need to keep Rudy ford. plays instinctive and fast and won’t cost much to resign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like Rudy out of all of the budget guys we’ve had. Also a ST demon, although a bit less than when we first picked him up. Hope he’s lost no steps post injury.

Sandy Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I'm waiting to have on opinion on this until we have a new DC. For all we know the new guy is going to bring in a couple of his own guys instead of Savage. Still, Savage should be an interesting player for any DC who thinks they can coax a little more production out of his skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a lot of roster spots when younger draft pick guys can probably do the same or better on special teams. Do agree they need a nice vet for stability. Yah. I know. But we tend to like safeties for specials and things like that. I think Owens has value as a spot starter/backup and special teams guy. But if one were to go to get it to 4, it would be a guy like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems like a good list to keep an eye on, given our previous history of moving guys like this inside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fautanu is going to be either at the top, or very close to the top of my realistic selections/wants list. If he isn't a tackle, or left tackle, he's going to be a very, very good guard.
