30. The money may be too much for Darrelle Revis to stay in New England.  The New York Jets badly want him back and have the cash to make it happen.. CB. New England. Darrelle Revis. 34. player

First and foremost this move is to help the Tennessee Titans secondary improve but it’s impossible not to point out that it would also hurt a key division rival in Houston at the same time.. CB. Houston. Kareem Jackson. 35. player. 35

Byron Maxwell. 36. player. 52. Gus Bradley hasn’t been shy about plucking former Seahawks away from Seattle before and he does so again, this time grabbing Byron Maxwell to help out a young Jacksonville Jaguars back end in need of a little seasoning.. CB. Seattle

The one-year experiment was successful but now the San Diego Chargers have to make sure they keep Brandon Flowers around.  It shouldn’t be too difficult a sell for both sides.. CB. San Diego. Brandon Flowers. 37. player. 13

player. 57. The 3-4 scheme commands the defense having two good corners, so the Bears need somebody across from Kyle Fuller.  Chris Culliver, who played under Vic Fangio in San Francisco would make a great solution to that problem.. CB. San Francisco. Chris Culliver. 38

San Francisco. Perrish Cox. 39. player. 42. Between Culliver and Perrish Cox, the San Francisco 49ers may have to settle for the cheaper option.  That would be the older Cox.  It’s a consolation prize, but he’s not ancient and played well last season.. CB

Arizona. Antonio Cromartie. 40. player. 30. A reunion tour sounds like everything Antonio Cromartie wants.  He enjoyed his time in Arizona, but he wants to go home to the New York Jets and they seem to want him back as well.. CB

41. player. 36. Depth at corner really began to show up for the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl and it cost them.  Bringing back a familiar face like Walter Thurmond, who should come at a bargain after a season-ending injury, would be the smart play.. CB. New York. Walter Thurmond

CB. Green Bay. Tramon Williams. 42. player. 54. Finding help at corner is absolutely a necessity for the Philadelphia Eagles.  That position burned them multiple times in 2014.  Even adding a solid veteran like Tramon Williams, who has done well in Green Bay would be a great short-term fix.

50. His relentless pursuit of a championship will likely drive Charles Tillman to a contender who needs help at corner.  The Detroit Lions are on that list.  Corner isn’t falling apart for them but they could use more help.  Tillman has the experience and skill set to fit what they need.. CB. Chicago. Charles Tillman. 43. player
