I was kinda shocked we didn't draft one since the saints made it clear they wanted Asomugha and possibly Porter. Do you think we should sign one more and if so then who? Who's available out there? And who might get released soon by other teams?
 
Someone will emerge from our crop of youngins... you'd think we could find 6 from this group. Add to this the CBs we signed as UDFAs

expect corey white to do big things, i saw tons of potential in him and a man press scheme fits someone with his size and speed way better than a zone scheme
 
With Malcolm Jenkins having played CB & Kenny Vacarro's ability to cover the slot I expect the team to keep 4 CB & 5-6 Safeties. In this scenario I do expect them to keep a CB or two on the practice squad in case of injury.
 
is mack still on the team?

Nope.

They went with 4 CBs for most of the season last year if memory serves, so they could do it again. Mack would be an adequate 5th if they decide they need one.
 
What I'm most scared about is injuries. Are we going to have to sign McKenzie and Chris McAlister again? lol
 
It's been posted before in this thread, Elbert Mack.
 
I say that we don't need another cb because we already have Lewis, Greer, White, and Robinson; we just drafted Vaccaro, so he, Harper, and Jenkins should all start & be on the field at the same time. Robinson will see less snaps because Vacarro and Jenkins can roam center while Harper can rush. Jenkins is also versatile due to him being able to play cb
