That's one sorry group of CBs. Less athletic...? Yes, a bunch of NFL teams have less athletic CB trios.. probably close to a 1/3 or 1/2 the teams in the NFL. Less inspiring group of CBs is probably what you were looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 My stance this whole offseason regarding House is that I'm fine bringing him back cheap as CB4 and with King/Tramon in the fold that looks to be the case. Obviously GB has to significantly address CB in the draft since both Tramon/House are 1yr stop-gaps and they don't have their slot CB yet(I don't have any hope regarding Rollins) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I meant less athletic. Over the last 3 years Williams has shown that he needs a 10 or 15 yard cushion to be effective. He can no longer line up over a WR and run with him. His age has caught up with him IMO. House looked slow and terribly athletic last year. IMO, at this moment, King is the only plus athlete of the bunch. House has looked awful for the better part of his last 2 years. This is the second season in a row in which we are going into the year with House as a one year stop gap.

MacReady Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 When it comes to House, Williams, King, I am fine with that group as long as they don't have a single owie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right., King being athletic magically and suddenly makes House and Williams more athletic. How ignorant of me, I forget that magic like that happens every day in the league. Teamate frequently make their peers more athletic just by being listed in the same sentence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately that's part of the Davon House experience for his career. Guy is always dinged up which is why having him as CB4 and not CB2 makes a lot more sense. Just not reliable enough to stay on the field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeightTheVillain Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 House didn't even play that terribly last year when healthy. I get that is the issue, but this is literally a no lose situation. This is going to be a cheap deal. Either he plays decently healthy, or is not healthy. Not a big cap problem either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Pettine uses press more, a healthy House will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
