My COMC shipment loaded tonight, and I just realized that I had sent this in:

2014 Bowman Chrome - [Base] - Bubbles Refractor #165
Brandin Cooks #/99
Item: 43239455 Added 8/28/2017
Beta SRP: $7.50

What should I charge? $200? $300?

Best cure for a bad secondary is called a pass rush. Look up "football" on Wikipedia.

Or you could actually have players at CB or S that can cover.

Yep, the best way to fix a bad secondary is to pressure the QB. They have legislated almost all of "good" coverage out of the game. If your corners only have to cover receivers for 3-4 seconds instead of 4-5, their success skyrockets.

Well he hasn't been all that great the past few years but I think it's a good move by the Steelers. Maybe a change of scenery can help him out.

Amendola is good but he's kind of made of glass. He's just not durable enough to take the hits on a consistent basis like an Edelman or Welker. He makes some fantastic catches no doubt but im always worried he wont get up.

It's too bad they didn't keep Carr he looked promising.

They should have tried to make room for Carr. Amendola is good but never available, especially if expected to play more, always going to be hurt.

Yep, he's just not tough enough to withstand the hits consistently. He's great at making a big play as a 3rd option or used sparingly. He has talent but he's fragile.
