Lurker Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 On 3/21/2020 at 4:54 PM, Coach Tuesday said: He’ll get $4-$6M per year. Expand Probably the top end of that range. He's a zone CB, so that will keep his cost down. But based on his last contract, not much below $6 million or so... https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/indianapolis-colts/pierre-desir-14538/

Carolina did scout him in 2014 so there is some familiarity there. Expand Perfect fit... "Desir, a long corner that excels in zone coverage and run defense, has proven to be a great fit for the Colts defense led by coordinator Matt Eberflus. The 28-year-old is also viewed upon as a leader in a very young secondary." 1
Chandler#81 Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Somebody Wake up Beane. We don’t have time to wait til 11pm! 1 5
DJB Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Yes please!!!! Because he was outright released at his previous number of 9 million and not traded , cost shouldn't be more than what we paid Norman.
Lurker Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) How nice would it have been to have him last January... Edited March 21, 2020 by Lurker 1
njbuff Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) I am sure some team with a desperate need for a CB will jump all over it. I don't know if McBeane feels desperate right now. The only starting spot they might not feel secure about is CB2, so it might be a fit. Edited March 21, 2020 by njbuff

Lurker Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Nice film breakdown on Desir from the 2018 season. He had some injuries last year that held him back, but that's the kind of 'dent and scratch' player Beane likes to target... https://www.ninersnation.com/2019/3/4/18249218/nfl-free-agency-2019-49ers-needs-pierre-desir-film-breakdown

Expand The one thing that helps us is that Desir is a specific scheme fit, for your predominantly zone teams, so you can pretty much cut the number of suitors in half
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 The Colts love their “pierre’s”!! It’s like the Bills and all the Williams’. 1
The Jokeman Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 It depends on the money he wants, I wouldn't rule out Daryl Worley either who has Carolina ties and has played nicked/started at CB and still at a young age at 25.

Then Norman is your third with Levi as depth.
