Interested to see what he signs for.

All things being equal, I'd say that if those 4 teams are who he's choosing from that it's probably down to the Ravens and Seahawks. If the Jets somehow pull off a Revis move though, he might go there to play with him.

When it comes to Defensive backs, I believe that Pete's system does a lot for guys who normally may not look very good in another system, so I try not to worry too much about guys they decide to bring in when it comes to that particular part of the team.
Sometimes I think Pete could just take volunteers and teach them to be a solid DB.....of course I could be over exaggerating his teaching ability just a little bit.

I pretty much agree with this. I don't think he was bad in Baltimore, which is why he got a good deal from Philly. I wouldn't mind this signing at allkidhawk":pkuenpax said:

Probably not much because they extended him an offer and let him leave without signing it. Bring in Williams, draft 1 or 2 CBs (signing Williams allows them to continue to let the draft come to them) add a healthy Simon to the mix and let them compete and battle it outImTheScientist":2p1xb9bi said:

Good boundary cb; not suited to play inside against Edelman type guys (Browner couldn't hang with those types and even Sherman might not be all that good having to play shifty little dudes in the slot). Simon being forced into a terrible position in the Super Bowl due to injuries has clouded people's opinions of him.
SImon was a rookie last year, per playing time on the field.
Trust me, I was pissed as hell at his performance in the SB, and I'm not ecstatic about him being the #1 on that side going into next season (now we have some competition), but if our GM was as impatient as most fans seem to be, we would never have seen the good years from Maxwell.
Maxwell was injured a lot his first couple of years and took a while to work his way into the starting lineup. Let's see....Simon was injured his first year (due to a preexisting injury from college, so we knew about it), and got plugged in this year, his rookie year on the field.
Simon has looked better than Maxwell and Lane did to start their careers, and got kudos from Sherman as being farther along at that point in his career than Sherm himself was.
I know Simon is the popular .net whoopin boy (and he should be to start the year), but it doesn't mean he's irredeemable. I think he'll be fine going forward, if he can let go of last year, or use it to fuel his performance going forward.

Once again, if the price is reasonable, and the coaching staff thinks that he can push to start opposite Sherm then I'm all for it. The team needs to add depth and I would guess there will be a battle between vets and rookies for those 2-5 spots in the secondary.

If the price is reasonable?
He'd have to compete for a job.

Go on then guys, why not?
Whilst it's not an exciting signing I think too many people are putting stock into dumbass Philly fan opinion and the fact their secondary was poor as whole. Bradley Fletcher was their biggest issue at a canter, that dude's a horrible corner. Williams isn't Maxi, but we'll be paying $8m less to light a fire up Simon's ass and add some solid depth.
Plus I reckon today's Earl Thomas would make Kelly Jennings look semi-legit.
