so this love of safety addition this off season left me stumped.

Sunseri is a smart guy and will most likely end up being the special teams captain as well as knowing every aspect of the defense

Every analyst has compared him to Jim Leonhard, which I for one will not complain about, need several of those "coaches son" type players on your team, Steve Gleason was one of them

do not get me wrong i love the fact that the saints are going to have a hard time cutting safeties this year. so far it has look like a great step in the right direction. may have been a bit over zealous

Also, I've read that the position Ball played in the CFL is basically identical to NFL Strong Safeties. He should fell pretty comfortable there.
