I would like Culliver to be more like a Revis type, that's a good comparison!

Sherman is 6'3" and Browner is 6'4". Culliver is about 6'1" and Marcus Cooper is 6'3". I think that's in the ball park and both have much better speed than Sherman and Browner.

3 inches makes a huge difference, imo. And that's not even counting their wingspan. Browner and Sherman have freakish long arms, I think that's one of their highly overlooked attributes.

So why not, Rogers and Brown as starting CB's, with Rogers moving into the slot on nickel and Nnamdi on the right side.... Cully and Reid as our safeties! not only do we have size but also exceptional speed. Whitney is the odd man out, I would much rather see Whitney as a cap casualty over Rogers. This may be a reach here, but I do see some potential... what do you guys think??!!

3 inch difference in height from head to toe doesn't mean much. Give me their height from shoulders to toe and that will tell you where their vertical reach begins. Some people have a long face or a big head that gives them an inch or two from someone else if their shoulders are the same height.

At the corner position, I'll take speed over a couple inches and a little more wingspan any day of the week.

Walsh did the same dumb thing to move a probowl caliber CB to FS.

No one is saying move Brown or some others to FS. It is about who has played the posistion and how aggressive they play CB. Culliver plays CB very aggressive and is very good at closing. Those things transfer to FS. Height alone is the worst indicator of whether or not a corner can transfer to FS.

Look you dummies... if it were that easy then it would have been done.
