De'vante Harris - UDFA
this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I'm thinking practice squad at best. He'll have to beat out 5 guys for a roster spot. Lewis Breaux Swann Wilson PJWilliams Brian Dixon Brandon Dixon Ken Crawley...

Harris may be a practice squad player, but I think he shows more promise than atleast 3 guys on that list. |

De'vante Harris signing, his size and alma mater (5' 10", 176 lbs) has Defensive Backs Coach Aaron Glenn (5' 9", 183 lbs, Texas A & M) all over it... Yet another indicator the Saints select draft picks from their own insider network and rarely get out and scout a player... |

Agreed that Jason David was terrible and got beat often, but he did notch 6 interceptions in 2008 so in my opinion he's still better than Dixon. Dixon to me is the Travaris Cadet of the defense, gets all the chances in the world even though he's very average. |

Lewis
Breaux Swann Wilson PJWilliams Brian Dixon Brandon Dixon Ken Crawley Jairus Byrd Kenny Vaccaro Jamarca Sanford Alden Darby, Vonn Bell I look at the list 13 and still hold the belief depth at both Safety and CB position should be filled heavily with Hybrids. I have been sold on this idea for a few years now. Unless your really good at either CB or S you need to be a solid all around DB in todays pass happy NFL |

And Swann is a playmaker. Obviously the concussions scare everyone. The Dixon brothers are pretty good special teams players. If he makes the team, thats great. But he's gonna have to earn it obviously. I'd say right now he looks like a prime PS player unless he plays lights out in camp and pre-season We usually only keep 10 db's, and 5 will be safeties. Maybe with Bush and Sunseri gone we only keep 4 safeties and 6 CB's. But with so many 3 safety sets I'll bet we keep 5 safeties. Byrd, Bell, Vaccaro, , Sanford, Harris and a few UDFA prospects may push Sanford. |

Even then we might be looking at 4 CBs on game day if we start running more 3 Safety sets. |
