I would do this if we were to plan to turn one of our CBs into a Safety. In the meantime, I'd like for the team to address that position since we have no starters on the roster.
This is going to be a classic case of 'you can't fix it all in one offseason' deals. They will likely try to go with Gomes at SS and sign a free agent to play FS or convert Barnes to a FS-although I think he's a bit slow and stiff for that position.

Yup. Although I hope we make some moves, reluctantly I am mentally preparing to just accept that safety will be a weakness for us. Griffin will need to put up a lot of points to overcome deficits in our secondary.

That could very well be a scheme issue. I'm not terribly concerned about that. He also had zero time to learn the system.
This isn't a scheme issue, no matter how many excuses you want to make for a player you like. The fact is he has been benched/cut by two teams now and one of them Bill Belicheat. If BB cuts your ass, chances are we don't want him either.

You can't fix everything in one offseason, however, it is silly to get another CB when we have two starters. Yes, I know our starting CBs are not perfect, but we have no starters at safety. As I said, I'd be fine with taking a CB if we are moving one our current CBs into the safety spot.

Does anyone know if we have plans to grab Matt Leinart? He sorta makes sense as a bridge for RG3

Whats interesting to me is that we are able to get Reheem Morris but we dont really seem to be giving him much help. I thought he would be able to draw more weight and get a couple guys he really wants.
Talib is on the last year of his contract and is due 2.2 million this year. Maybe he ends up getting released or traded cheaply?

He's coming to see us after he leaves Cincinnati.
We're just faking it....like he does.
edit: nevermind, that was Deon Grant!
