I think we need to bank on Martin being ready sooner rather than later. It is funny because some Ravens fans are upset about lack of play and depth in the backfield right now.

MM said Derrick Martin was picking up the defensive scheme well so I am not too worried about the release of Smith. Rouse or Martin will do...especially against the Rams.

But how will they fair against the Vikings and such? I hate when our depth "will do." Kind of like how Barbe "will do" and such. Will do just doesn't cut it for me. I believe Smith would have been a step above "will do," and even if that step was minor, we need all we can get at this point.

I just hope Martin steps up. We could really use him!!

... oh and btw I'm still glad we got rid of smith - not like we dont need a safety now (ok sarcasm off).

Smith was let go because he as not assignment sure and went rogue during plays. Looks great in pre season when there's no one game planning against you, looks stupid in the regular season. Hence, his being cut. (that's not me spouting off, that's what was said about his time in GB)

I understand what was said, I still don't agree with it though. Are they trying to tell me Bush, Bigby, or Rouse don't do the same exact thing? Surely Smith offers more upside then Bush at safety??

I bet all of us would like to have him back there now. Sure, maybe he's not perfect, but he was obviously decent. I would feel pretty secure with him back there. I don't see as much as the coaches, but I will hold steady to the opinion of feeling more comfortable with him back there then Bush, even if just the familiarity with the system.

Bush was not kept to play safety, it just so happens he can at l;east step in there in emergencies. Is it what we want to see? No, but Bush is not on the team to be a safety, so no relevance to Smith.

I have faith in Rouse..the only glaring mistake i seen on sunday was on the TD to Henry, Rouse didnt even notice him going behind him and let him run free.
