John Clayton, of ESPN.com, reports Minnesota Vikings S Dwight Smith could get cut this offseason.

what about one of these guys in the back in SS, would this be an up grade?

I would say that they would be better quality depth than D Gib, in my opinion.

I don't think safety is that big of a concern. We have Huff, Stu, Cooper, Bing if needed, we can pick up a medicore guy and be fine.

Yeah I dont think safety is a big enough concern for our team to be focused on, I think Stu is good enough to be there, let him grow with this up and comming young defensive backs we have no need to mix it up just yet.

One question: If Stuart Schweigert was on a different team would he be a starter?

Probably not, but are you suggesting that he isnt good enough to be starting? and then let me ask a question myself, do you think safety is a big enough concern for us that we should be adressing it immediatly and spending our free cap space now instead of other Bigger problem spots?

screw cooper, screw stu and pickup doss, he is still very young and has his best years ahead of him

**hellbound** · #9 (**permalink**) 02-12-2007, 11:05 AM

we were going to draft doss though.

**raiders_fan67** · #10 (**permalink**) 02-12-2007, 11:11 AM

I beleive Perry might help Stu be more aggressive this year

With Routt, Stu, Huff...thats a solid 3-man S combo, and JCooper too for depth.

Routt is a Dime DB no doubt, but they can live with him as an emergency SS/FS...

Huff and Stu are lock starters...they played practically everydown, and unless there is a major injury, it shoud be the same. Like I said, Routt, Cooper is enough to back them up...they'll have some in camp for competition, no big names, no major signings...
