Love Cisco. This is a great piece now and for the future.

Fine move. Not gonna get emotional about a value move.

You called it yourself: "a crowded safety room".

I'm sure they have a reason for this. Maybe they see it as an improvement in the body count. Maybe they're going to move someone back to the practice squad in place of this man. But this doesn't move the needle one inch.

Even if this moves Abney back to corner, is this considered big impact?

Jeffrey Simmons is in Chicago with two shots at us this year and every year for the foreseeable future. Joey Porter Jr. is sitting in Dallas.

I'm sure we'll hear about how much he tried to get so and so. Funny thing is, everyone else gets so and so. We seem to only get "who?".

If it's my assessment, they don't trust Izien or Abney. This might signal Abney moving back to corner/nickel.

Good value to solidify our depth, not gonna criticize this low-cost move but hopefully it isn't the only move. I wonder how it helps our need at CB (by potentially moving Abney / Harper / Izien?) as I already felt much better at S than I do about CB.

Brads all in on mediocrity. Does any team have to game plan for this guy? No, no they don’t, this is a depth piece that doesn’t move the needle.

Will this be the only move Brad and the Lions will make

Typical Brad homes acquisition. Cost crap and is crap. Not a needle Mover.

Does not help their weakness at corner, Unless Keith Abney now shifts back to the corner or slot position.

Yes, I'm wondering if this pushes Abney, Harper, or Izien to nickel / CB.
