[quote=KI Skins Fan;1052596]Not the dreaded trade back! How many times have we screwed that up?

FA first. Then assess the remaining positions of need. Then draft the BPA at a position not addressed in FA. But what do I know?[/quote]

I agree with you about getting crazy trading back. However, there seems to be potential to move back (not far) for good reward at the top of round 2 with the way the draft is spread out now.

For example, this is what happened with the 2nd pick in the second round last year:

No. 34: San Francisco → Tennessee (D). San Francisco traded this selection to Tennessee in exchange for Tennessee's second- (40th) and seventh- (216th) round selections in the 2013 draft, along with Tennessee's third-round selection in the 2014 draft

[quote=WillH;1052595]My thoughts exactly, also he is younger.

Sam Shields has similar number to Verner, and wants to get paid after the GB snubbed him last year with a 1 yr RFA contract.

There are certainly a few options out there at corner, and we have some room to play with, and they aren't ancient like Deion was, and I really hate how [B]we haven't had a shutdown corner in years, and. . .[/quote]

Since I've been doing it all day, let me throw one more name out. SHAWN SPRINGS! :D

That sounds alright depending on who is left on the board. 6 picks back can mean a lot in the second round, or it could mean very little.

He WAS a shutdown, probably not in football shape though . . . lol

Absolutely. If we can fill a need, do it. If we can fill a need with the same quality player and pick up more picks, then do that instead.

[quote=SirLK26;1052589]Would you rather have Niles Paul, or Josh Morgan? Chris Thompson?

In Decker's rookie year, he returned 22 kickoffs for 556 yards, an average of 25.3. He would be better than anything we have right now.[/quote]


In his rookie season Pierre Garcon returned kicks, doesn't mean I want him back there now, Decker is gonna get a good chunk of change this off-season. Not gonna risk him there. We can find a kick returner, not to mention Richard Crawford will probably taker over for him when he comes back.

[quote=TheMalcolmConnection;1052594]Interesting. I had thought about Talib, but since I haven't really heard Verner's name, I assume he's WAY less of a head case.[/quote]


If we can somehow get: Verner, Byrd, and Alex Mack, I might just shit on myself.

My BEST Walt Harris memory was him stopping the Cowboys short at the Monday Night Miracle and he's doing the "incomplete" sign. That's the ONLY thing I'll remember about him.

I haven't been overly impressed with Decker, but hey, I wasn't impressed with Garcon thinking, "Just a product of Manning." even when he was catching balls from Painter and whoever else was throwing him the ball.

I will remember how he left us and had 8 interceptions for the Niners.

This. I remember him being a shitty corner for us and then having a Pro Bowl year with the Niners. Same thing happened to Rogers.

I've always felt like we let people go only to have them have breakout seasons with other teams. There's a huge long list of ex-Skins I don't even wanna bother naming.

As much as I thought GW was a great defensive coach, he was very Shanahan-like in his, "this is my system and it works". Way too much of that. Just draft highly regarded players and hope they play like they should versus saying, "well this is an athletic lineman, let's draft him even though he wouldn't start for 31 other teams in the NFL."

Also, HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
