This was a post of mine from earlier in free agency regarding safeties and possibly adding Jarius Byrd:
The NFL is well aware of the importance of excellent safety play which I'm sure is part Kiper's thinking in projecting a BPA safety to us.
I don't think its about how much money so much, its where you spend your money. But how about Antrell Rolle, Giants 2010....won a Championship.
Playmakers are where you should spend it, Byrd is a playmaker.
Safeties can be game changers. Look at how many of the Champions lately had good safeties.....Earl Thomas last year (Should have been a Dolphin), Ed Reed the year before that, Antrell Rolle the year before that, Nick Collins the year before that, Darren Sharper the year before that, Troy Polumalu the year before that......that a pretty good run of teams winning it all with playmaking safeties.
Byrd?....Yes please!
