Brandon Flowers done
















Quote:
Chiefs released CB Brandon Flowers.
Flowers' performance and usefulness in Kansas City slipped dramatically under new DC Bob Sutton last season, as a press-man scheme was installed in the secondary and Flowers failed to find a fit. He wound up mostly at slot corner, and was beaten relentlessly. The Chiefs were trying to trade Flowers, but found no takers for his contract. Flowers had some of the best years of his career under now-Texans DC Romeo Crennel, and cornerback depth is needed in Houston. We wouldn't be surprised to see them reunite. Flowers turned 28 in February.

Quote:
Chargers agreed to terms with CB Brandon Flowers on a one-year contract.
The deal is worth "up to" $5 million and contains $3 million in total guarantees. Despite an anemic 2013 season as a misfit in Bob Sutton's press-man scheme, Flowers found a full bushel of suitors after the Chiefs released him 11 days ago. He lands in a spot where he can immediately rehab his value as a starting corner and then hit the open market again at age 29. Flowers put plenty of really good tape together from 2008-12, and will add borderline Pro Bowl shadow ability to a pass defense that ranked 29th in the league last year. With first-round corner Jason Verrett also added to incumbents Shareece Wright and Richard Marshall, this won't be quite the unit to pick on that it was last season.
He's a Charger now.

People will see that it wasn't just scheme as to why his play dropped off last year. I bet he's on the list of "biggest FA busts of 2014" next offseason.

The main reason why his play slipped was because he was playing with a bum knee all season. IF he's healthy, he can play and I would not be surprised if he was the '12 version of himself. I think the only way that he's a bad signing is if he gets hurt again. The deal with Flowers though is he gets banged up easily and thats what causes players to slip. If they continually get banged up, eventually they're not the same player.

Someone posted in another thread that the Arizona CB said Sherman was an overrated CB and I have to agree. Hes one of the most overrated players in the league... Its the system he plays in that allows him to flourish. Earl Thomas is the guy with the hard job on that defense

Though we are trying to play man press which is quite different, putting enormous pressure on some no name-cbs

That's part of it. He can't stay healthy. With the league being filled with bigger WRs more than ever even in zone scheme he's delegated to nickel now. I have nightmares of Decker.

He didn't say Sherman was overrated; he said Sherman wasn't a "true lockdown corner" because he doesn't always play man on the #1 WR like Peterson himself or other guys like Darrelle Revis do. The Seahawks usually run cover 3 so Sherman just covers space.

.. And he's overrated? Come on now. Watch a game. Check the stats.

Sherman is a system player in a system tailor made for him, and he would likely struggle in a man heavy system because he's not that fast. He's physical, big, incredibly smart, and has great ball skills.

I'm not sure that makes him over-rated at all. Just perfectly fit for the defense he plays in. I've seen a lot of guys who are big and can play man to man while they suck in zone defenses like Seattle likes to use. We have one in KC. He drove into a light post.

Flowers?

I doubt it. I'm shocked he isn't a Falcon yet...

I think we're going to sign him. Just cut a safety, think it's to make room.
