Quote:That wasn't the argument.

 

The argument is that like LT vs C, CB is a MUCH more premium position than nickel.

 

The guy who plays LT best, plays LT.  The guy who plays CB best, plays CB.

 

If that makes nickel a need, you go get another nickel.

 

It's really not complicated at all.

Obviously, we don't currently have that other nickel.

 

Right now you have to adjust your lineup to get the best group on the field. If that means putting Colvin in the nickel in nickel situations, then you do it. Getting that guy who can play the nickel on a permanent basis may not happen until a future offseason. At this point, you have to do what is best for the team as a whole.
