That's my thinking on Dyson too. With him at a reasonable price, it really would be like having 3 starting and interchangeable corners. Williams could really have a field day on match-ups. He really is the classic "New England" type free agent pick-up: Young, coming off a down year, but an otherwise solid career. If he isn't looking to break the bank, I hope we can pick him up.
But as has been noted, I would not be surprised if a few other teams are thinking the same thing.
