Ideally Hall returns to pro-bowl form, Rogers played like he did during the first half of '08, and Barnes steps right in and challenges Smoot for the 3rd corner (which I think is already happening).

Welcome to board btw. I'm always missin 21.

Thanks for the welcome.

To be honest, I don't know. I think at this point, we can't release him because we are too close to mini-camps & training camp, but early in the offseason, this is a move I would go with. Because of all the things I mentioned.

I like Smoot for his energy, but you are right about giving more cushion then Rogers. So like I said, about who to replace Rogers, I simply don't know. I would not want to throw caution to the wind, as this FO has done so often in the past & put some un-tested CB back there...too many things can go wrong there. At this point, I guess we wait it out & HOPE that things go better for him this year.

That being said, this is the "Release Him!' thread, not the "replace him thread" so you caught me off guard with that. LOL
