Molden was drafted as a long term contributer, and he is a rookie, we won't know what they have in him until he gets real playing time. Reeves on the other hand, is an "established" veteran. You know what you have in him, they need to forget the money they have in him and play him less in order to get the other guys more reps.
If he can't crack the top 3? How do you know there isn't some other reason driving that? Like . . .I don't know . . .a 25 million dollar contract? Kubiak has acknowledged in the past that he made mistakes not playing younger guys at the end of the year, how do you know he won't say the same thing this offseason about Molden?

I don't understand the logic of benching the guy who has performed on the field. Why not bench Fred Bennet (who has played terrible), or Dunta Robinson (who is improving physically but still can't cover anyone yet). Reeves has CLEARLY been our best CB this year and it's not even close. As far as I'm concerned, play the best players. Now, if they're equal, go with the younger guy. But you don't just play young guys for the sake of playing young guys.
If you're so concerned about everyone getting in the game then go watch youth soccer. I prefer watching the best guy get the spot.
