I'd rather have Byrd, or Goldson, or Quin, or Chung, or even Delmas.

Phillips has 9 turnovers in 5 seasons, which isn't very impressive... not to mention the fact that he's only been in 56 games in 5 seasons, which is like ~11 a year. I am still on the "Throw large sums of money at Byrd until he signs with the Bengals." bandwagon.

[renorvis]

Turnovers for a safety are a bit overrated in my opinion. Eliminating big plays and playing good coverage are what the calling card of a good safety. Generating turnovers in a large quantity is icing on the cake for a safety. For example, Phillip Thomas led the nation in interceptions this past season. He isn't even the top rated safety in this year's class!

For Goldson and Byrd, you have an argument.

Chung, Quin, Delmas are tons worse.

Goldson and Byrd will likely be tagged (I would be shocked if Byrd wasn't).

Phillips may be our best option in free agency as long as he doesn't demand a ton of money.

[ibengals]

Byrd is either going to be franchised, or someone will pay him a massive contract. I'd expect him to sign a contract similar to Eric Weddles last year (5yr/$40,000,000), so that kind of puts him out of reach.

Phillips could be a pretty good alternative from what I've seen.

This Byrd phenomenon reminds me of the Tyvon Branch-Eric Weddle wishing that was on here a few years ago.

[BigPapaKain]

Psh, we could Chad Jones for cheaper.

[Shahjahan]

I honestly feel like Chris Clemons (from the Dolphins) is the safety we should go after... he was rated the as having the best coverage skills in terms of number of first downs and touchdowns allowed on PFF. Plus he is still young, has speed, and can tackle (99 in 2012). Start him opposite of Reggie Nelson.

Please put who you are talking about in the title.....please

[JungleJuice]

No way.

We need a true SS
Or another guy that can play both.

Reggie is more of a FS but you must play both spots in Zims defense.


I still think we find our guy in the draft.

[Lawless_1]

I want this guy

That song makes the video almost unbearable, as good as the highlights are.

Huge rap/hip-hop fan, but not a fan of that song at all lol.

[berserkerone88]

Id rather go after a guy who isn't brittle

[Ben zoo 2]

Or draft Kenny vaccaro in the first round

[mrcommish<2009>]

Phillips is always hurt , stay away

[CincyGuy344]

I actually have him under
Vaccaro
Reid
Elam
Rambo
Swarenger

[Mike M (the other one)]

And I'd rather have William Moore, been touting him for a while now. He's underrated and better than most of the other Safety's that will be available in FA. Let's get a second opinion.

And what about Moore? Is he on the same level of play as D Goldson and J Byrd?

Everyone wanted Weddle.. and instead they got.....



...........While Weddle went on to compile 0 games missed, 185 tackles, 1 sack, 20 passes defensed, 10 INTs, and 2 FFs in the two years since. So I wonder why the fans of Bengaldom would ever have wanted Weddle.. and now want Jairus Byrd?
