Champ Bailey @ Safety

[SkinsFanMania]

He has been quoted that he is tired of all of the change in Denver and also wants to move to Safety to prolong his career. His contract is coming to an end. Would you be onboard with a 3 year contract to use Bailey as a safety and backup corner in case of injury.

It would instantaneously give us another playmaker in the backfield to help D.Hall. I know he wouldn't be part of the young class of players that we will be hopefully bringing in this free agency period, but he will most definitely upgrade our defense as free safety was a major weekness with only Kareem Moore being the true free safety on our roster and that isn't saying much.

I thought he always avoided contact. Great cover corner man on man, but that doesn't make him a safety.

[Dallascrushers]

I like Bailey a lot...but I feel he is getting older and would definitely have to gain more weight to play free safety....I think we should avoid this and just see what we can get in the draft in the later rounds

It is an interesting option but it wouldn't be my first pick going into 2011. If we're going to go the converted CB route I think Barnes may be a better option. Without knowing who is available in FA off the top of my head I can't throw a name out but I would prefer an actual safety. We need someone that can tackle back there but getting Landry back should help in that department.

I have no personal problem with Champ at all, but at this stage I feel we should be headed more in the direction of youth.

He wasnt happy here the first time. You think he's gonna come back here? Not likely.

His wife wasn't happy because he couldn't keep it in his pants and he was annoyed with the constant change of DC's. He would now be playing for a former coach he seems to have enjoyed playing for. I'm not suggesting we sign him but the situation has changed.

[Chump Bailey]

I don't know - I suppose that could work.

I'd prefer Danieal Manning. Manning and Landry seems very solid.

[veteranskinsfan]

I liked him when he was younger but now its too late. He will want to play for a playoff caliber team. I was really upset when he left D.C. I did not like that trade.

youth movement....next

[Thiebear]

History has shown he is pretty and ready for t.v.
Deon repeats are not needed.

[SkinsFanMania]

I appreciate everyone's comments as I'd prefer a youth movement as well, but not knowing anything else and if we weren't able to get anyone else, I wouldn't mind Bailey.

[Chicken Fried]

He's too old. We need to build the defense around youth.

[Laxpunk2006]

I don't really see the comparison. Deion came in for a pay day and left us high and dry. Bailey honestly seems interested in continuing his career. Again, not suggesting we get him but the arguments against seem somewhat weak.

We need stop gaps, I'm onboard with it.
