If Harper was the big problem, he would have been released and Vaccaro would play SS...

No, he wouldn't because it saves us no money releasing him. Virtually none. Why would you release someone and still pay them, why?

Face it; Harper is the perfect in the box strong safety... Right where Rob Ryan plays his strong safety in the "46"...

You'll just have to boo him when he's racking up those TFL's and sacks...

That has nothing to do with coverage. Enjoy his last season with us

Make a valid one and perhaps he'll respond.

I think him saying we would cut Harper and me pointing out how that is inaccurate since it saves us no money to do that is more than accurate. Especially when we are up against the cap.

They could have saved 3 million, if they would have cut him early in the offseason... If he was so bad they would have cut him when they signed Leonhard, why didn't they?

Or give the starting job to Quaddus or Bush, they have shown promise...

From my understanding we save virtually nothing. This is his last year with us, enjoy it.

Quaddus I like. Not sure if he can be full time starter or not, but definitely heads and shoulder better in coverage.

Bush I disagree with at this point

Your right about Harper, he is a pure a box SS as it gets, really none better but you need a FS to make up for him in the box and Jenkins can't do it.
