One under the radar prospect to look at this year is Alabama safety Vinnie Sunseri. In Tuscaloosa, his stats were not staggering; he recorded 31 tackles in 13 games in 2011 and 54 tackles, including 6 tackles for loss, in 14 games in 2012. However he started 2013 fast getting 2 pick sixes in his first two games. Unfortunately, after 2 games, his 2013 campaign was cut short due to a torn ACL, which he has recovered from at a remarkable pace.

Sunseri will be joining Jairus Byrd, Kenny Vaccaro, Rafael Bush, and Marcus Ball in the safety group. Despite the level of talent, Sunseri can possibly overtake Ball on the depth chart. If not, he will be the 5th safety, which isn’t the worst position to be in. Last year, Rob Ryan kept 5 safeties on the roster and used them all extensively throughout different points in the season in his unique 3-4 safety lineups. So though he won’t start, Sunseri may still see some playing time in special packages.

New Orleans Saints: Why to watch Vinnie Sunseri

"A Veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount of "up to and including my life."

Danno

He went to Bama, he'll never be given a fair shake by Saints fans. Been there, seen it.

If that was the case I wouldn't have asked god to gift wrap us CJ Mosely. If Vinnie is good we will love him.

BTW, I was one of the few who was a Roman Harper supporter.

"Wait.... why did we draft him again. Cut him....
Better yet... bring me Nick Saban."

As long as he produces, who cares where he came from.

Ashley

could care less now that he is a Saint. But if he still was at Bama that is a different story

Pretty old school thing these days to confuse Saints fans with LSU fans...

I'll root for the guy even though it will aggravate Danno.

Danno

Sorry, I didn't mean all saints fans, just the majority. I visit too many sites that hate everything Alabama and lumped some of you in that group.
I'd say about half here don't care that he went to Alabama

Yea I'm a huge Bama Hater and LSU homer and I was so excited about the Ingram deal when it happened. Was I wrong? Or is he what he's been so far?..........anyway yea I'll pull for a Bama player.
