I feel like we should look into signing a good cover safety or trading for one. What do you guys think?

Don't worry. Wait until Taylor holds out during the offseason. Making Archuleta the highest paid safety is arguably the worst roster move that I have ever seen from them. Let's think about this. You have guys like Antonio Pierce, Smoot and Clark. These guys were developed, very effective in your system, and wanted to stay. So what does the team do? They lowball every one of them.

You cannot tell me that the defense wouldn't have been better last year and this year with these guys. (And don't get me started on what could have been if we had drafted Merriman instead of Rogers)
