Eric Weddle or Tashaun Gipson?

[RockThatBlue]

Weddle will be available and it sounds like the browns will let Gipson go. Should the colts let Lowery walk and look into signing either Weddle or Gipson?

[jchandler7]

If Gipson is available I would look hard into it if I was Grigson. He was a beast couple years ago.

[The Peytonator]

I'd love to have either, but I think paying too much for a safety with all the other needs wouldn't be fiscally responsible. If one of them could be had for about a $4M cap hit I'd be down.

[UKColt13]

Gipson. 

 

This shouldnt even be a question. Weddle is 31 (I think) and is declining slowly. If Gipson's available Grigs needs to look closely at him. Gipson as the centre fielder and Geathers as the hitter would be a good pairing for the future in my mind.

[COLTS449]

The only thing that makes this a tough choice is money. Gibson is younger but will get more money. Weddle's older and will get a smaller contract. I'd go with Gibson though because I keep saying.....Young - Impact - Players/Playmakers

[COLTS449]

But if we could bring in Osemele, Harrison, and Johnson and then have enough to give Weddle a 1 or 2 year deal then that'd be great.

[RealityIsLuck]

Neither.

Go with a young Gipson unless you think the old Weddle is going to produce more than Adams and Lowery did last year.  Don't know how much chance is for that happening. Adams and Lowery had 9 interceptions last year between the two I believe.

I don't want another player with a year or two left if we're lucky, so Weddle is out for me. 

[SDakColts]

Gipson due to age. I think that Weddle has a few good years left, but we can't keep signing older players on the decline. We need younger difference making players.

[ClaytonColt]

Players in their prime over player past their best. It's not even a question. I'd rather stick with Adams and Geathers and draft a safety in a late round than sign Weddle. 

 

I can't actually think of many better centre field safetys than Gipson and he should still be improving. 

[BProland85]

Tashaun Gipson, not even close. Gipson will only be 26 when the season starts, and Weddle will be 31. Weddle was a great safety in his prime, but he isn't the same anymore. If he wants to sign for a cheap deal then I'd be for him over Lowery though.

Gipson for sure.  We need to focus on building a team and not bringing in these players for a year or two.
