A lot of players this year wanted 1 year deals because they know numbers will go up next year with the new cap. If this defense ends the season a top 10, expect everyone back.
Interesting stat on Ogun: He's been double teamed 80 times this season (sounds painful doesn't it
). Aaron Donald @ 81.

I never said they didn't spend money.
They spent money, but a lot of money came off the books as well. They just reallocated resources.

At this point it would be good just to estimate him.

A "game changer," to me, is someone who forces a lot of turnovers.
Waynes only had 7 INTs and 2 FF across 74 games.
But maybe he'll be able to force more turnovers in Anarumo's scheme vs the one he was playing in MIN.
Those numbers are still better than WJIII. I can't remember, what kind of money did he get?

Fairly certain Logan Wilson has already equaled or passed Jackson in the interception department.

I believe you are correct.

Less than Waynes, actually.
But while Waynes did have more turnovers than WJ3, WJ3 had more PDs in fewer games.
Waynes - 42 PDs across 74 games
WJ3 - 46 PDs across 62 games
Personally, I felt WJ3 was the better CB than Waynes, but that's my opinion.

2nd highest % of cap space allocated to defense in the league

Not for nothin', but this thread's title should read "the arrival of Trae Waynes". He's never been here to return from anything. If he didn't have long hair, I'd need someone to point him out to me.
RE: Are we underestimating the return of Trae Waynes? - MasonDT70 - 09-30-2021
I'm interested in how he'll look tonight. He hasn't played a game of football in over a year. Im hoping with Lawrence being pretty erratic this will be a good game for him to get back into the swing of things without being punished too heavily.

The answer was no. Awuzie is the best corner on this team, Waynes may not be a bad 2 though.

I didn't any bad play by Waynes, outside of that long pass, once he gets some snaps under him, I think he will be fine

Thought he played well all things considered. Was his first game In nearly 2 years on a short week. Give the guy some time to get his feet wet.
