Let's not forget that Bodden was out the whole season and Wilhite missed at least half the season. That's a lot of injuries at CB. With Butler missing some games and regressing, who else did we have outside of our starters McCourty and Arrington? We had plenty of depth at safety but not at CB. That's why we didn't use extra corners. This year, we're reloaded.
I agree that Bodden being out impacted the depth, but let's not blow smoke here. Arrington was a desperation move made because Butler was getting abused like a red-headed stepchild on too many occasions. Wilhite wasn't exactly setting the world on fire before the injury, and either he or Butler could be in trouble when it comes to the numbers game this year.

Unless BB changes his mind about Dowling, and has him cross-training as a rookie, someone's probably going to be playing elsewhere in 2011, and you can be pretty darned sure that it's going to be one of the bottom 3 from last year (Arrington/Butler/Wilhite), because they weren't good enough.
