So far Cruiser and JoeB are winning the arguments, we're just treading water at this point.

It's obviously very early on Day 2. I'm not going over to the dark side with Sky and Joe yet.

Although I hear the women aren't bad looking over there and the babysitters are pretty quiet...

Good looking women and me go together like peas and carrots :D

And I'll take care of the babysitters as well!

From Paul Dehner

Not sure if he wrote it, but he posted it.
Chidobe Awuzie, Cowboys: Awuzie struggled last season, but much of that can be attributed to a nasty hamstring injury he suffered in Week 2 that put him on injured reserve for much of the season. In 2019, a fully healthy Awuzie put together a solid year and looked primed for a payday when he hit the Free-agent market this year. Instead, his market is questionable. A team willing to take a chance could receive a big payoff. Awuzie is only 25 and has quality football on tape when he's healthy.
Awuzie's 2019, his last fully healthy year, he graded slightly better than William Jackson's 2020.

Overall PFF score of 72.2 with Coverage of 70.5

Jackson's overall PFF score was 71.4 with a slightly better coverage grade of 72.4

Preach! Or, how bout when you actually luck into drafting a good players who want paid and then you let them leave because you are a horrendously incompetent franchise you inherited from your Dad?

Bengals are signing Mike Hilton from the Steelers.

That's two pretty decent CB signings.

PFF on Mike Hilton
Hilton epitomizes the do-it-all slot corner who can cover in both man and zone, play the run and blitz effectively. The Steelers' scheme allows him to show off all of those skills, and he’s quietly been one of the most valuable corners in the league since 2017. The one concern is his 26 missed tackles over the last two seasons.

Hilton has only played a handful of snaps on the outside since entering the league, so expect him to play in the slot no matter where he lands. However, given the difficult nature of that position, he should be coveted on the open market. Even at just 184 pounds, Hilton is annually among the top corners in defensive stops, highlighting his willingness to stick his nose in against the run as well as his proficiency as a blitzer.
