I mean, the success of that plan seems contingent on either Hall, Barnes, or Tryon unexpectedly becoming a No. 1 CB, but I wouldn't have even thought that option possible just 3 months ago.
I would think if Rogers doesn't play to a pro bowl level, that could be a real possibility. Especially with the way Tryon seems to be thought of. I know it's OTA's and they don't mean much but Barnes has 3 INT's in the last 2 practices. I think they're looking for Rogers to have a really good year and they like having more than 2 really good corners, but if Tryon keeps improving and Barnes has some ball catching skills, Rogers could become expendable. He could sure use some INT's this year when the opportunity arises. With the addition of AH and Orakpo, the D backfield should look pretty good this year.
