And I think they see that NCB gig as being harder in their system than the outside role. So they're just not eager to spend $18 million on a pure boundary guy like Ward.
Half that for less term with Fulton? Sure.

Based on what we've seen from Veach with how he drafts/Fa as well as how Spags has executed the defense over the last 3 or so seasons I have to agree with your conclusions. i was just saying, ward is a top-tier CB, a lockdown CB vs. the bigger WRs a la AJ Brown, DK Metcalf, Sutton, etc. and we could've used his talents both in the regular season and in the playoffs a few months ago.
