I second that. Barrett was horrible last year. The year before he showed some promise and I thought he would turn out to be a good third CB, but he regressed badly last year. I have to agree that the Jets are not very bright and will suffer badly with the signing of Barrett.

I liked Barrett. Three and half million is not alot to pay a starting CB in the NFL. It was Barret's first year as the main CB.He's only going to get better.He's not the best CB out there but the Cards just let their best CB walk away for nothing and it looks like they have nothing to replace him with.Starks coming back with Barret would have been an at least average to above average starting CB duo.Now we HAVE to draft a DB and instaed of easing him into the lineup,he'll have to be a main contributor.Another excellent move by Graves.Maybe we can sign another FB. If we would've at least made an offer to another good CB(sorry Mackin doesn't fit the bill) then i could see letting him go without any effort to retain him.

How do you that the CARDS haven't in contact with some of the other available DBs?

Furthermore, I believe that most on this board expect that we'd make a first day DB choice, no matter who signed to start this year.

P.S. on pure raw talent Wilson could adequately replace Barrett, if the finally decide to move him there.

He's going to have to the way things stand now. For your first question,i'm just going with my "belly" that Graves hasn't contacted another CB other than Macklin.

I disagree completely with those of you who didn't like Barrett. You underrated him terribly.

Sorry Skkorp!

DB did not make enough big plays to justify a fat new contract in my book!

One interception all year? Adios Daveo!
