Well its come to this. Our Safety situation is down to Lowry Manuel, McCree, and Barrett. Rodgers was just released after beating out Lowry for the spot.
I think at this point we almost HAVE to start Barrett. The simple fact is the rest of the safeties suck, and after waiting for almost 3/4 the year we finally realize the situation isnt going to fix itself.
The other side of this is to see exactly what we have in Barrett to see how dire our situation is at safety for next year, this could be a etermining factor in whether we take a safety in the first round.
I hope Barrett gets a shot, we shouldnt try to reign him in either. We need to see how he uses his athleticism to make plays. Obviously he will make mistakes but we really need to gage where he's at right now to see if he will be ready to make a contribution either now or in the near future or perhaps not at all.
