Champ Bailey

I'd be good with Chap at FS...heck I'd be okay if we moved Clemments over.

Same.

Do it, Baalke. Do it, Harbaulke.

I am in favor of this but at some point we have to develop some of our own players too. Plus hed end up right back at corner with us. Who do u really want covering someones top guy, Clements ot Bailey? The more and more I think about the draft the more I just want to get a shutdown corner with our last top 10 pick for a pong time. No more over paying for veterans on the tail end of their carears. That being said if hed sign for under 6 mil a year he could sure up our secondary and help us make a good run.

So true we are gong to be drafting in the 20s for a while so we need a top cb prince should be there and is probably safer than a de olb there

We should draft a corner, and sign Bailey.

Rookie + Spencer + Veteran + Brown + Adams at Corner.
Bailey at FS.
Smith/Mays at SS.

Nate will make 11+ Million next year if he is kept.. Not happening. Clements will go unless he restructures for less.
Nate IMO would be a pro bowl FS with his ball hawking and hard hitting...

Do it Clements.

Just because he's not an elite corner doesn't really make him a washed up player. I'd like to have him as our free safety

That would be great if we can get him for a good value and he converts to safety! It prlonged Woodsons career when he slowed down as a CB. Bailey could easily be a Pro Bowl Safety and I could see the Raiders or Ravens jumping all over that.

Exactly.. and people said the same about Charles Woodson in Oakland before going to Green Bay. Look at him now.
we should try to convery clements to fs and restructure is contract. if not we should cut him and sign champ bailey. both i think are potential probowlers at fs.

Yeah I'd actually take him as a cornerback if he would still be willing to play the position. If not, safety would be fine as well.

Totally agree. Champ could be our new (mot likely better) Walt Harris. That guy was awesome! I was at the 3-pick game he had vs. Oakland.
It would be an excellent pick up especially so if we draft a quality corner. He could help reduce any learning curves and be a coach on the field. I'd love it.
Draft Prince, sign Bailey, keep Reggie at safety, but rotate Mays in there. Restructure Nate.

Bingo.
