Safety Available

i've loved chip vaughn, fs, since he last years draft out of wake forest. he's intuative, fast, and a hard nosed steelers type of player. last i heard he was on the new orleans practice squad. i think the steelers should sign him to a future contract if thats possible with a playoff contending team. he's a lot better than the scraps we presently have in reserve at safety (carter and mundy). don't get me wrong, i love mundy, the hometown boy, but vaughn just has more talent. i think with a year of adapting to how polamalu plays, he can be our future fs for years to come. i know at this point of the year everyone is looking towards the draft, but i'd really like to see him in a steelers uniform. talent can be found in practice squads, a.k.a. james harrison, udfa. we don't need too look solely to the draft to improve our team. tag or resign clark with vaughn in reserve and in a year or two we'll be laughing.

it would be great to find a FA safety-- Mundy won't break top 6 dbs here

GMSteel,

Thanks for the creative tip on who to look out for that is not already discussed on the mock drafts. We could also use a vet who will still has speed to cover the middle while we try to develop young DB’s next year. You are very loyal to speak well of Mundy. He is a good hitter, but he will never have the quicks we must have to cover all the crossing short routes that every mediocre QB has thrown at us in the 4th quarters.
