Re: Malcolm Jenkins could see more nickel

Hard not to get burnt when you're the only player on the team farther back than five yards off the ball.

So now Payton personally spoke with Jenkins about drafting Vacarro, and has now informed Jenkins that he'll be the NB on passing downs instead of FS.

Hmmm, interesting.

I think that's because Harper can't play nickel, Danno. lol

There's no history of that. MJ started as a corner for us. I think it makes the most logical sense.

Did you not watch him in college? He has a lot of experience in the slot at Texas...

Jenkins will be a better corner than safety, and Vaccaro is a better safety than Jenkins. 2 position upgrade with one player...

But it seems Loomis/Payton are showing that Harper wasn't the problem...

KV needs to be on the field as much as possible I really think he is going to be a Top Caliber Safety for this team n the coming years...

yeah i was one of the people that thought the move to FS was a good one for him. last year i throw out of the window for the entire secondary when spags got pitch out. i still think he could pull it off as a safety. contract year for him so the pressure is on to do so.

That's silly- Harper gets killed at safety. Destroyed in coverage. Harper has no ability to play nickel.

Tim Tebow was a QB in college, who the **** cares. He can't play it in the NFL.

Harper has always been a liability in coverage.. always. If you think he's here after next year you've lost your mind. He's only here now because cutting him wouldn't save us much money.
