We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.
If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research.

If they're cheap, sure. Would have been fine with Dee Ford but not at $16M in 2019. That's always been the rub for me. [Reply]

Are you pleased with the misery you've ordered? Shall we find some young children to pin to a fence to please you?

Yeah, there’s injury risk. But the upside is tremendous. In terms of pure talent, it’s the best two corners available. If you hit the jackpot, you might have the best CB trio in football.
And that’s before the draft ever happens. Worst case, it’s great depth.
Throw is best quad CBs. Ward is gonna ball out [Reply]

Veteran Chargers cornerback Jason Verrett, a former Texas Christian standout and first-round draft pick, is currently scheduled to visit the Texans following his pending 49ers visit, according to league sources, Kansas City Chiefs also in line for a visit, too.

I actually fully agree with all of this. But it's rolling some major dice. And most importantly, we don't know the price. If these guys sign on reduced prove-it deals, sure. But we have no evidence that corners are caving. If I were in their shoes, I'd absolutely hold out. This is a seller's market. [Reply]
This is interesting: Source says the #Bears are hosting #Redskins FA S HaHa Clinton-Dix tonight and tomorrow. The Skins have tried to re-sign him, but no deal yet...
