Nothing to get excited about. He's just a guy, much like Preston Brown and, to a lesser extent Hart (because Hart really isn't good).
If he really is that good in the slot, then I really can't be too upset about singing him in the place of Dennard. High end slot corners are making a lot of money now, and I expect that DD probably wants 8 or 9 mil per to hang around. Adding to that, if rumors that he wants to be a perimeter corner more than a slot specialist are to be believed, he may not have much of a future here.
Let's be honest, DD is a nice tackling corner, but he's not anything special. I'd look to the future and plan to pay WJ3 and let DD go try to get paid elsewhere. A cheap guy that's familiar with the new system and has slot skills is an ideal replacement if that's what Webb indeed is.
Even better, if he's the slot guy, then it lessens the chances that we blow another first on a corner. That's positive for me.
