Darqueze Dennard gets a deal

[*pally*]

Dennard finally signs with the Falcons after having a deal early in free agency fall through

As far as playing ability I don't see Alexander as being an upgrade over Dennard, but Dennard just could not stay healthy.

Meh, big deal.  Dennard is now the Falcons' headache, and Alexander in now going to rise to stardom, as a Bengal.

The point i was making waas that even if they were equal in talent we are better off because Alexander can stay healthy.

Yeah, still sort of a "backhanded" compliment, when you say that Alexander is not an upgrade in talent, to preface your post.

Ability is one thing but availability is the key here with Alexander!!!!

I believe that is true.  

When healthy Dennard was a very good slot CB.  Alexander is no big star.  That is why we could get him for just $4 million.

But if he stays healthy that is a big upgrade for us.
