Re: Malcolm Jenkins could see more nickel
 
We have such short memories. Jenkins aka "double move" used to get roasted at corner. He was so bad at corner we moved him to FS. I just don't get the love for him. He is a bust. Go back and watch the cowboys game in the dome a few years back. That game was the icing on the cake for that season for him.

Harper at least was a good at one time. But he has single handedly been the weak link in our defense the last couple of playoff games we lost. Vacarro is known for being able to cover guys bigger than him which has to be a reason we picked him up.

You'll just have to boo him when he's racking up those TFL's and sacks...

Your right about Harper, he is a pure a box SS as it gets, really none better but you need a FS to make up for him in the box and Jenkins can't do it.

As a rookie? One year in the league? One game?

I remember him muscling, taking the ball away from Washington receiver in his limited playing time...

Harper was good at one time? LMAO Devin Hester Pass Interference? Seattle TE Three Touchdowns? Green Bay I, II? Don't hate the player - just hate his game...

Jenkins and Vacarro would be the best safety mix in the long run in the pass happy league.

Harper led the league in sacks for a safety one year. He was also big in our 09 run - he was and is a stout run stopper.

Regarding MJ - the only thing I can say is that it took the front office only one year to know he wasn't going to be playing CB any more.

Daze, what good is a corvette that can win a small load tractor pull if you can't win some quarter mile runs against some street punks or pick up the babes at the Daiquiri Shoppe?!?

Brother, he's a defensive back; a safety; last line of defense; he can't cover, he can't hit straight up; and he can't catch; he's slooooww...

You're right, he led the league in sacks as a safety, but how many times was he sent and didn't make the play?!? how many times was he sent more than contemporary safeties on other teams?!? We had to send him cause he was a liability in coverage...

I appreciate the love, but man when I hear the sack stat quote I keep asking, as a Defensive Back, shouldn't he be able to First, Cover?!?

The Sack thing should be a bonus as a DB, not what he hangs his hat on...
