Re: Sean Payton Recaps 2013 Saints Draft Class

Malcolm Jenkins said you gave him a heads up about drafting Kenny Vaccaro. How did you go about handling that?

“We were speaking about this first pick, and I knew what the first cloud looked like. I said there is a couple of potential tackles, there’s a couple of pass rushers, there’s two corners, one safety. There were players at offensive positions that we weren’t going to take and we wound up taking the safety. Our players understand the nature of this business; they get it. They understand that every year, there’s always going to be an influx of players that are wanting to compete to make a roster. I think Malcolm said it best that for us (that) to be as good as we can as a football team, we have to have an environment that starts with competition and it will bring out the best in all of us,
Thats interesting.

Basically the same for Harper, since his 2014 salary is top 10 for safeties, but can be easily cut.

How much would it cost to cut Harper next season if he doesn't perform/restructure this season?.

About 8 to keep him, 2 to cut him.

I can see him gone next year then with the cap looking a issue.
Hopefully if Ryan uses him as a blitzing Safety like Williams did there may be a little interest in him next year,might be able to get a trade.

I think he's playing to stay here in New Orleans with a renegotiated contract.

Even if he plays well, I can't see him getting that 8 million, especially since we have to sign some very very expensive free agents next year.

Part of me wants to see him sign elsewhere so I don't have to keep reading uninformed posts about how bad he sucks.

I rather see him not be blamed constantly for a completion that another player had coverage on.
