Payton feels comfortable with Shanle. We can alway cut him if the young guys step up.
Brees feels comfortable with Stinchcomb.
Harper is a freak at tackling. One bad game in Seatle.
Evans is/was a great FB but is getting old. Hopefully he can still play.

You will be happy before Free Agency is over. Your rant doesn't hold water.
Whoa FF I thought you were my homie. One bad game in Seattle, one bad Game in Chicago, more bad games against carolina. Hes a great tackler. But coverage no. Atlanta and Green Bay are probably plotting how they can abuse him out there. With Greg Olson now in the south he needs to bring his PF Flyers. Im glad Drews comfortable with Stinch over Streif but Stich still gets.his A__ kicked its gross why do you think they bring in Streif to chip on some big body formations. Heath is solid but how often do you get a chance to get a head buster like Vickers? Any man who goes toe to toe with Ray Lewis is a quality idea to persue.

You're wrong on this one buddy...
Go ahead... eat crow. Every player gets beat.
Harper's good far out weighs the bad as this vid proves.
Harper's job isn't to cover WRs.
I'd take him on my team any time.
Harper = Playmaker He's a great SS.
Green Bay is more worried about how they're going to slow us down.

Roman Harper Highlights - YouTube
This is highlight film. It shows Harper making plays, few plays in coverage almost all tackles. Again hes a great tackler not so much in coverage. I love my Saints just like anyother fan but the reality is hes suspect in coverage. It doesnt matter what position he has to cover hes the matchup the QB os keeping in mind in his progression. Even when I play madden and I run into a fellow who dat I torch his ass because I know hes a bum In coverage. Remember when Drew was on the cusp of breaking an unattainable record that 3rd- 29 conversion Steve Smith caught on Roman Harper, remember that OT game in Chicago and just like all.game long Pass interference on Roman Harper cost the Season? All im saying is there are other SS's that tackle just as good.and.play well in coverage ie Donte Whitner, Dawan Landry, Brodney Pool, Quinten Mikel

Did you watch all 10 minutes of the highlight film? Think you could have found that much on any other players not name Vilma? No.

Look you could argue that if the pass rush and the LB play was better that Harper would be exposed to miss matches called by Williams. Yes Harper is a little slow on top end but he gets to maximium speed very quickly too. He has the smarts and is a sure tackler.

In any case, Harper isn't the problem with the defense. When you have a DL that can't put pressure on the QB or a LB corp that only has one playmaker, your SS will be left exposed.

ALL PLAYERS GET BEAT. There are great players on the other side of the ball getting paid too.
