I mean, it almost worked with Jonah Williams last year, but the team had that 5th year control so he was bound to try his best to impress the market. What do you think that an unhappy Trent Brown would do at RT after settling for less than he and his agent feel he is worth?
Winning changes a mentality massively.
Not saying he’s not a prick but I doubt he would want to be seen as the weak link in a flying team.

Yeah, overpaid, but I think he will do much better in that Division.

Good depth behind Battle and Vonn is a great leader. Tycen is always hurt even if he looks good when healthy.
I would welcome Vonn back with open arms.

But if the price was right. I’d take him as a RT bandaid and to open up the draft to go BPA
I had just read that Brown was a drama queen. Kind of a Lockeroom disrupter. Not sure we need that.

Sure, but if he isnt starting then he has to play special teams..... We also already have Dax and Battle going for SS.

Vonn is a little old for that maybe. We will see, in a way I don't understand it either when talking about him having to play ST's.

Thinking Dax will be used more as a Slot Corner at times on TE's, as a nickle Safety and as a WILL backer on passing downs.
But yeah, Dax is more of a SS from what we saw last year. Lou the Mad Scientist going on here I guess.

Bell is not an optimal special teamer for sure....
Moving Dax around is directly opposite form what Lou said in needing Dax to learn to do one thing very well.

Yeah we gotta take advantage of what the market gives us. If they get Vonn for cheap then rock the depth of being able to play Battle/Bell if Stone misses any time, give Battle some time off and maybe even line up in dime packages depending on personel.

I'm all for it! For the reasons Nate mentions and he isn't afraid to come up and hit a mfr. Toughness and leadership on the backend with the young guys to learn from is just what that room needs. He would also bring accountability to the group.

Wonder what Dax's position will be then, only so many to go around and Hilton and Battle played well last year.
Stone is the new starting FS. Dax isn't a boundary Corner...

Sure are lots of options with all these guys. Should be fun.

Toughness and leadership sure are things Vonn brings that is for damn sure. As well as accountability and hittin' mfr's

Vonn should have an open invitation for life after the hit heard ‘round the world.
