Pasquarelli with some praise for our CB situation

If Springs is healthy then yeah, we look solid at CB, because he can still cover most #1s (especially TO), and I like Rogers or Smoot matched up against #2 WRs. But if Springs is gimpy for us this year, I don't like Rogers or Smoot up against the #1s.

We definitely figure to be better off than last year though, so that's a plus.

You still have to like our quality of depth compared to last year.

Macklin >> Rumph

Yeah that's what I mean by us being better off than we were last year, our ability to cover the #3 and #4 WRs is greatly improved.

But I don't know that we've improved our ability to cover the #1s.

Replacing Archuleta will probably go a long way there, and GW's changing philosophy on releasing the DEs to rush the passer may help there too.

True, that will obviously depend greatly on Springs... and Taylor to a degree.
