And some jackwaggon dares to compare him to Jason David?

Asininery, complete asininery.

'asininery' makes it through spell check? That's awesome.

I'll take Harper, albeit at a discount. We have bigger issues to worry about.

Yep, Harper's only problem is he covers like he's a Strong Safety. Oh wait, he is!

Kind of a rude article if you ask me.

If I'm not mistaken, the infamous late hit on Steve Smith in the end zone was because of something Smith did to Malcolm Jenkins earlier in the play, when Jenkins got tangled up (punched maybe? pushed off?) and went down -- not because Harper was the one who got "burned" on the TD. I'd have to watch it gain, but as I recall, Harper came racing over from way far away, where his part the action was, to make that late hit. The way I remember it, it was Jenkins' responsibility to make the play/make the tackle/bat the ball/intercept, and Smith did something to Jenkins and mauled or taunted him. So Harper was PO'd about THAT.

Key, discount. Remember the talk after last season about how our money was spent? Even with Drew's contract, we spent more on defense than offense, and did not have anything good to show for it.

I can't admit that any of the Harper defense helps me @ all. I have never been a fan of his. Most sacks by a safety..... cause nobody on the line could get to the qb. When he was out for that 3 or four game stretch... it was the best I saw the defense play this season. I am not saying he could not be a benefit to this team... but he earns way to much money. I could save 7 million dollars if I cut him..... 7 million dollars.... If this helps the Harper defenders Jenkins is far worse than Harper but this not saying much.... I'll take Bush Vaccaro Quddus first and then if we have to choose between Jenkins and Harper i'll take whoever takes the cheaper deal.....

Harper is a good "in the box" safety. Just don't put him in coverage. He sucks in coverage. As for Malcolm Jenkins, well......???

Rugby Saint II · 12-28-2013, 02:23 PM

I would miss Harper.....Jenkins not so much.

If harper leaves i have to admit i'll truly miss him. p.s. i also LOVE MALCOLM JENKINS! both of these guys have held our defense down this year again jenkins coming back off an injury and by the way harper is too, both coming off injuries of course they're gonna be the target but i will truly miss either of them if they're not in a saints uniform next year.

I never understood the love for 2 of the worst starting safeties in the league year after year. However I am not going to tell you what to enjoy and what to dislike. I am glad you have enjoyed watching them over the years, I can't say the same.
