Saints to a 3-4???

Why CB's? Our CB's are better suited for man coverage anyway. Even Johnny Patrick may surprise some people. OK, maybe thats a stretch.

Depends on how we play the secondary... The 49ers run the 3-4 staying in man coverage most of the time. The Steelers run more of a zone 3-4, I think...

I think Marquis Johnson will surprise people.

Is he still on the roster.....I coulda sworn he went to IR then they gave him an injury settlement. Which would make him a FA....same thing with Greg Romeus.....I might be wrong but I for some reason I remember that being the case for both. Unless both resigned during or after the season.

IDK, I've seen flashes of really good play from him from time to time, although they've been far and few between, and with the right secondary coaching he could become a good nickel CB.

Why? I think he might follow Spags and/or Flajole to where ever they land, since if you recall, the Saints paid him off after he was injured and went on the IR, so the Saints don't have a contract with him.
