I defended him last year from guys saying he sucked, but I wasn't totally confident in him long term. I'd say he won me over with his '16 performance, but I can also understand why some are still a bit skeptical.Well he really wasn't a full time starter except for 14 15 and 16. 14 was bad 15 was solid 16 was great. Imo he's trending upwards. I think we would take 8.5-9 per year same with z.
That goes for FA as well. I would think teams would look at his full body of work. It's tough to justify elite money on one season of evidence that he "might" be a top notch CB. I'm hoping that makes him more affordable to bring back. I'd compare it to Andre Smith's first foray into FA. A good season or two that followed some disappointment and injuries. We wound up getting a bargain due to lack of interest from other teams.
Good point on the saturation of CBs available. That may drive down price as well.
