Killing all kinds of birds with one stone with this signing...

And with a SS like Dugger in Rd 3, he could be developed as Williams will be gone next year, and Bell probably won't see the third year of his deal.  Helps now, helps down the road.  

I hated watching the likes of Polumolu and Ed Reed destroy us over the years and we never had a player like them.  Dugger is a dog and a ball hawking freak.  I want a tough alpha like him patrolling our defense for years to come.  I think Bates becomes a better player by eliminating the drop downs (easy pickings) and he and the other safety likely won't lead the team in tackles.
