Tryout Tuesday = Wednesday contract
Maurice played for Georgia, where as a grad transfer he was team captain, after starting at Alabama. In 2017 he was signed as an UDFA by Miami He spent that year on the PS. In 2018, he bounced back and forth between active and PS. Was waived at end of 2019 training camp. Signed with Washington in 2019 where he spent most of the season on the PS. Waived a couple of days ago. With Waynes out for the season, Williams injured, and Alexander out of camp for an undetermined time period, DB depth was needed
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.

So, as long as we're running short on CBs; Let's sign a fringe Safety..
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

I wonder if he is a pure safety or a nickelback?

I'm thinking Bates would slide into Mackenzie's spot while Rose Backs up Bates while Smith would backup Williams and Bell

It begs the question--how many NFL caliber CBs are out there walking the streets?

So was this before Mackenzie's dad disappeared?
Cause yeah, was thinking we needed a Corner, not another Safety.
I like that Maurice was a team Captain at Georgia though.

We are still OK at corner. Alexander will be back and isn't dealing with an injury.

As was Shawn Williams.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.

Logan Ryan is a FA but apparently wants to be a S (and a decent amount of $).
Javien Elliott
Brandon Carr is 34, and not who he used to be, but still okay.
Morris Claiborne
Those are all guys who while they aren't exactly first choices, but they could theoretically be serviceable more so than PS/camp fodder.

I'm thinking we are going to see more three safety looks. And what about ADG? I know he is a LB, but will he ever line up as a safety in this package?

Possible, ADG is about the size of a Safety and he can cover and tackle well.
