Well Harper was burned for no less than two touchdowns...in that game...

It was actually 4 TDs in that one game. However don't bother arguing about Harper it goes no where with far too many people on this forum.

Proof of Harper's poor ability to play the position isn't just in the scouting reports. Look at what has been done; 1st RD pick Safety and being forced to take a pay cut. Ill trust Mickey and the staff know best here.

4 TD's huh?

Hmmm, OK.

Here's what we know...

Mickey and the staff drafted him.
Payton made him a starter from day one.
He's been the starter for 7 years.
He's made two pro bowls.
He received more gameballs than anyone else on the team one year.
GW said Harper made exactly 2 mistakes in the Seattle game.
GW said he played a great game other than those 2 plays.
Mickey and the staff gave him a top 5 salary for safeties.
Payton gave MALCOLM JENKINS a heads up when we drafted Vacarro.
The Saints just gave Harper more money and an extension.
Payton said the team will start Vacarro off at the Free Safety position.

Yeah great game giving up 4TDs... I couldn't care less of what GW has to say about anything.

Harper took a PAY CUT. He didn't go to the front office and say hey guys i'd like less money... no, Mickey probably told him to take less money or find another team.

PFT has had Harper ranked as one of the worst safeties to sit on the bench for the last two years, but hey this is all regurgitation at this point.

But to stay on topic...

I am looking forward to this new D and i think JR and Butler will play big roles. Both JR and butler could be pro-bowlers IMO.
