Just wondering what you guys thought of picking him up for a cheap price. I heard someone say that he plays at a Pro Bowl level in a man to man type defense. He played so bad last year because the Lions run a zone scheme. what are ya'lls thoughts?

here's a link...

I would be all for it. Although, I think he was in NE yesterday. If he is going on the cheap and has the skills NE would have signed him due to their weak CB crew.

He always plays good when I see him. Plus hopefully it would show Dunta there's other CB's that would like to play for us, and influence him to sign the long term deal with us. Not to mention Petey Faggins has anybody heard bout him? Is he gonna stay here?

I think Petty will leave quietly like Ron Dayne did. I'm pretty sure he's done.

I think Leigh Bodden would be asking too much. We've already got decent money invested in Jacques Reeves and a lot invested in Dunta, so I think this is an unlikely deal. The thought of adding another talented press-cover corner to the roster is appealing, but I think after Antonio Smith the Texans will look to solidify their overall depth with cheap backups and look to the draft for further improvement to the starting lineup.
