re: Jabari Greer's Contract Situation

Say hypothetically that Lewis and NA are both on the roster at that start of the season with no injuries. What happens if Keenan Lewis just doesn't work out? There is a certain level of risk involved with getting an "on the cusp of greatness" type of player. Yes, I think he will work out, but what if he doesn't? We could be wishing we had Greer back pretty early in the season.
Also, say one of these two guys gets a major injury and he is out for the season, what then? Move PRob in as number 2? We all saw how awful he was last year when Greer was out. We need a 3rd guy as nickel, and Greer fits the bill perfectly as a true starting nickelback and a rotational/situational guy at the position.

Oh, also, regarding the contract. He is guaranteed 11 million, we paid him 5 or so last year, wouldn't we have to pay him the remainder if he was cut? The only option would be trade him or keep him.

You can't always have a 20 million dollar what if player on the roster. What if Drew goes down? We still have Prob and corey White both are more the protypical long and sizeable corners that rob ryan likes to have. What if What if What if. What if we actually were prepared for what ifs last year. We still can draft a body in the draft as well.

I think you will see much better from P rob with not having to play as much zone next year.
While we can save cash by cutting Greer we need proven depth. Our div. is loaded will QB talent and skill at the WR positions. Unless they graded Greer very low after reviewing his year I think he will be back. His cap hit is minimal.

This is what I was thinking. I'm hoping they keep Greer even if they do sign Asomugha. I'm no expert, but I think Greer would be a great nickelback with Lewis and Asomugha holding down the islands. Then we have Robinson and White for rotation/dime and hopefully groom for the future.
