Andy Reid says he not worried but I am a little. Does anyone else think Dorsey might pick up a few waived players after tomorrow that might help us out with catching the ball, stretching the field, and hopefully getting 6 on the board through the air?
Thoughts, opinions?
I'm not too worried about WR depth. Expect Fasano and Kecle to be out in a lot of 2-TE looks. Bowe looks slimmer and should be solid. After that, it's a battle for #2.
I'm absolutely worried about the CB depth. Releasing Brandon Flowers was a mistake.
I do think that WR is an area of concern. Bowe and Avery dropped way too many passes. For Hemmingway and Jenkins, now is the time to step up. Much like our secondary situation, we simply didn't have the cap space or enough draft picks to really make a dent roster-wise, which sucked given the WR talent of this past draft.
Fasano and Kelce will both do well on the field...but they gotta stay healthy. At this point the "go-to" guy has gotta step up.

I'm inclined to agree about Flowers. A lot of people were complaining he didn't fit this defense, being drafted by Herm for a "cover 2" style secondary. Even if he stayed their just wasn't enough changes made in roster or coaching to expect a huge difference from any player.Quote:

^^ Agreed about Flowers, and it may very well turn out that they pulled the plug on him too soon.
I agree that Flowers' play had fallen off in this scheme, but I'm very worried about the alternatives on this roster and the overall depth. I wouldn't mind them signing Champ Bailey as depth.
I was going to start a thread on this. Would you want him as CB depth or try and switc him to safety. Or both. If New Orleans was willing to eat 500,000k that says something. Does anyone know if they were trying to switch him to safety?Quote:

I am much more worried about our secondary than I am the wide receivers.
