CB Jason Verrett IS BACK on IR!

The way our entire division is airing it out, I honestly hope we trade for a top tier cornerback. From watching yesterday the pass rush is slower than a couple of years ago plus the way we were constantly gashed straight up the middle the line will have to focus to be better there so that means our CB's will have to be better and not rely on pressure to make their jobs easy. TRADE for a starting cornerback. I'm not convinced recycling pass their prime vets is the answer.

To be fair, O line is probably Detroit's strongest unit. Let's hope that our D line will look a little better when Kinlaw is in there. As far as trading for a CB goes I'd be okay with that but what do we have to trade. Really good ones usually get a 1st round pick or 2 and we don't have any. If we trade 2nd round picks we aren't going to get the impact corner we need.

Lynch probably called Sherman already, and needs to make a call to Gareon Conley and see if that ankle is fully healthy. Make a call to Quinton Dunbar and see if he has cleared up the personal issues he was having during the Lions training camp. The options are there so no reason for the Niners to slack and allow the likes of Johnson and Thomas (who does not look ready) to man the edges.

Sherm needs to be resigned immediately.

For all we know, Mosely could be hampered by his knee alignment all season.

Give me Sherm and Norman against the Eagles.

Nothing wrong with CB starting depth if and when Mosely comes back.

This. Sherman isn't even a shell of the player he used to be. He's now just a liability in coverage and would have to be constantly shaded to avoid the deep pass which puts the other side on an island. Not good, gotta be better options (even if that's developing a rookie)

Sherman Is pretty much done at this point. I'd rather just give the young rooks a chance to prove themselves..

Not just that. He hasn't been working out with any team so wha tkind of shape is he in. They face Jalen Hurts next week who is showing signs of improvement. After that they will see Rogers and Wilson. Despite the way he looked yesterday, Rogers is still dangerous and Wilson is Wilson.

Old man Sherman will still get more respect from guys like Rodgers and Wilson than Dontae Johnson will. Johnson's a liability because he's a known target for opposition QBs (see Goff).

PLEASE sign Sherman for insurance purposes. Send DJ back to the practice squad.
