Greer and Porter getting better and better!
 
Cornerback tandem of Jabari Greer, Tracy Porter unmatched in New Orleans Saints lore | - NOLA.com

It was not long ago it was major suckage at CB for us. It is now a truly a position of strength with the addition of Robinson. They may not get the notoriety yet, but are deserving of pro-bowl accolades.

TWO DAT!

yer i am majorly confident in our secondary nowadays. I know we have the best cornerback tandem in the league, definetly the most young and talented. Great things are gonna happen again this year

Memories of the Jason David era are long gone. We have one of the best younger corner duos in the NFL... who'd thunk it?

We haven't had a corner tandem like this since Dave Waymer and Johnnie Poe. This tandem (Porter and Greer) is Pro Bowl caliber.

Jason David's nickname is, in the words of the great Mortal Kombat sound guy Dan Forden, "TOASTEE!!"

Reminds me of a post I made to a Jason David thread quite a while back when he was still with the team:

I went to a Waffle House the other day and asked our waitress for extra toast. She came back with Jason David. :p

Those two guys will be great for years to come.......

Are there any previous Saints tandems that comes to mind? Did we ever at least have one good corner?

Eric Allen was pretty good for us.

Toi Cook, Dave Waymer, Dave Whitsell, Vince Buck before he got hurt...I'm still thinkin'...

edit...Johnnie Poe?

I thought our coverage couldn't get any worse than Fred Thomas...then they brought in Jason David. Just think, JD was our lead picker...how bad was that? Not very long ago DB's were at the top of our wish list. Dreams do come true.

Certainly go with the 1st 2. Very disappointed when Toi Cook went to 49ers.

still wish MM could have fit in here for the whole SB run

Not at cornerback, but Sammy Knight was fun to watch at safety.

The Saints took a long time to build this position to where it is today. Just think about how long this has been a work in progress, and now finally. I do believe the Saints have the best secondary in the NFL, when they are healthy. Trying to keep these guys healthy is the only real issue at this point.

M.M was really good at one time..i considered him a shutdown corner for a brief time..

Re: Greer and Porter getting better and better!
 
The first thing Sean Payton did was to start bringing in corners......He's had good and bad choices(some of which have moved to safety) but he has consistently worked to upgrade the secondary. Having GW calling for more corners the last two drafts didn't hurt either. Our corners should be quite good for a long time to come. I'm glad that the predator came back to help last year. We really need him and he stepped up. Although, his no wrap tackle almost rubbed off on our younger players.
