I haven't paid any attention to him for a couple years but I have to think he's an improvement over William Gay and it would keep Fleming and Gay in the slot where they are best. Plus Toler and Adams are up in the air after the year so if he comes cheap, then I certainly wouldn't mind.
You have to think he'd prefer Detroit though. They're the best team of the three and need CB help. |

1 - Gay is best in the slot, Fleming best on the outside.
2 - Routt is not good
3 - I would rather roll with Adams and Toler for the rest of this season and keep Adams on the cheap going into next season than going after a KC castoff.

Why in the world are we looking at a corner? That's the least of our current problems.

You are always trying to get better, looking for ways to improve.

A corner on the mid-season free agent market doesn't improve us. That's simple enough.

who knows...I can't imagine him being very exspensive so I don't mind that much.
Ray Horten must see something in his game that interests him.

Corner is a need but not major. Now I wish we didn't pursue Manning so Marshall could've come back.

For whatever it's worth Miami placed Marshall on injured reserve today. Back back, he's only played 3-4 games this seeason.

1. For Fleming I just meant this year, until he gets the hang of things. I think he can be a good #2 CB in a year or 2.
2. I get the feeling people think he's worse than he is because he never lived up to that ridiculous contract he got in Oakland, therefore fans were more negative about him.
3. For what it's worth, Chief fans seem very upset about this move. |

| For what it's worth one of his last years in Oakland opposite of Nnamdi, he was targeted often and graded high by PFF. Now this year in KC he's had struggles but his greatest problem seems to be that he rarely turns to locate the ball which could of directly effected the fact that he led the league in pass interference a few years back too. |

A corner without eyes in the back of his head, thats what we need. (sarcasm)
If he signs for say 2 years $3 mil (as he already pocketed heaps of signing bonus from KC & OAK), i am all for it.
Other than that, pass. |

I din't realize this report was from Jason La CanFora. Had I noiced, I wouldn't have even waste my time.
The guy NEVER (And I do mean never) gets anything Cardinals related correct. Ever. It's almost a joke at this point.
