    I think he would start over maye personally or maybe even rotate out the 3 safties. we'll also run 3 safety sets where adams and matthau can alternate slot duties. keep claiborne for the outside with johnson. skrine becomes the dime back in a sense if we keep him but mostly we'll use a lot of 3 safety sets in the nickel compared to 3 CB sets. So our dime would be johnson, claiborne, matthau, maye, adams, and skrine. and the nickel would be the same minus skrine. that's a legit scary secondary. matthau is essentially the same type of player as adams but further along in his career and more established. Bowles specialty is the secondary and having to versatile safties like that could be huge. essentially the offense would never know or be able to guess what they are doing pre-play

    Things are suspiciously quiet regarding this. Aside from some twitter banter between Adams and Mathieu, there is no news at all linking any teams to him.

    most teams blew their "big money" before he was even an option. could lower his price. not many teams have money to spend. right now you are seeing the more reasonably priced contracts. the 2nd wave of FA

    Apparently he's going to visit Jets, Giants and Packers.

    And now he's signed with Houston for 1 year at $7 million. Yet another one-year deal, but unlike ones like Bradford, Claiborne, and Bridgewater, this is for a shockingly low amount of money given his achievements.

    His knees must be really shot if that's all he was able to get. You can't even argue he chose a bona fide contender.

    For that amount of money, the Jets could have given him more dollars. Of course, the Jets had to re-sign the best QB mentor of all time - McCown.
