3. Kyle Fuller

The Rams may have brought in Pro Bowl cornerback Marcus Peters already, but their secondary is still one of(if not the) biggest areas of concern this off-season. As of right now, safety Lamarcus Joyner and corners Trumaine Johnson and Nickell Robey-Coleman are all unrestricted free agents. There has been plenty of noise that the Rams would franchise tag Joyner, but Johnson is almost sure to walk away. He’s played under the tag the pas two seasons and will be looking for a big money deal. It’s entirely possible Kyle Fuller could come in at a cheaper price than Johnson.

Fuller picked a great time to have arguably the best season of his career. He enters free agency having put to rest any concerns about an knee injury suffered in 2016. He may not be a ball hawk but he’s a physical corner who on paper is a great fit to go along with defensive coordinator Wade Phillips. It also doesn’t hurt to have Peters on the other side, who is best known for creating turnovers…and not exactly being a tackling machine. The yin and yang of both players would form a great combo.

The NFC West already features quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jimmy Garoppolo in Seattle and San Francisco respectively. The Arizona Cardinals are on the hunt but have the ability to find a good one. One way to stay ahead in the division is to have a pair of excellent corners on the outside. Fuller would be a dynamic number two option.
