Well, one option is eliminated in Diggs, we're down to the excuse that maybe he wants the other one in Simmons. 1/32 chance that happens. What happens when that doesn't happen? We go into the season with a poor secondary once again? If Ballard likes what he's seeing with Blackmon at FS and Cross at SS, then he's willing to play Blackmon out of position to play Cross at SS, and he's not willing to sign a FS in FA when we have a need there, and we have the money to do it.
Diggs was $3 million with an additional $2 million in incentives. We could have matched or beat that.
Maybe Ballard didn’t want Diggs? Maybe Ballard wants Simmons? Or maybe Ballard likes what he’s seeing from Blackman at FS and Cross at SS?
There are other possibilities that you haven’t considered.
Cross is in his third year. If he isn’t taking the starting job by the horns there is an issue. Jones was a 7th round pick. Flowers was undrafted and coming off a manor injury. Brent’s hasn’t shorn he can stay healthy. Why not try dnd raise the floor. If jones and flowers are your backup CB you’re in pretty good shape.
