Bunkley to date falls into the category of a contract year player. You get his best when money is on the table. Look i i wanted the saints to take him well not that high in the draft so after keeping an eye on him over the years i was not all the happy to see the saints give him all that money. He had one outstanding year and then the pay day. I am not happy he got hurt but he did let us see Jenkins early and often. I will be surprised if Bunkley gets his starting job back to be honest.

Bunkley in the rotation is a good thing.
Bunkley getting fewer snaps than Jenkins is wise thing.
