Worst case is he falls on his face and we let him walk next year. If it turns out he's great, then make a move next year to sign him long-term and get rid of one or two of the other guys. More than likely JJo is cut in 2018 anyway. Someone is going to pay the guy, so why not us?

It's a great idea until you realize what the top-paid CBs in the league make and what even one year of that does to the salary cap. Should we be paying Bouye the same as Darrell Revis or Richard Sherman, even on a one-year trial?
