Re: Saints secondary is aiming to be the strength of the defense
For me, the guy's who's development is most important this season is Marcus Williams...
I don't think we'll see many heavy nickel sets (3-safeties) as we've now got legit linebackers on the roster... So he and Bell will have to compete and I believe Williams is the better athlete, playmaker that we need there... If Bell continues to progress along his arc, then you may not forced to spend as much on Vaccaro's contract... Gotta feeling Vaccaro, though, is going to be like Ingram on offense, where he really doesn't get it till after Year 5... Then, you almost have to recoup your investment... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

He's not a pro bowler and probably never will be but you can usually count on him. Swann just has injury issues so who knows what the call is there. Probably be a last minute decision between the two. I think Moore is pretty safe unless he gets hurt. He's a good insurance policy. |

I fear we now have two safeties with the same skill set. Are Kenny and Von are two peas in a pod? Time will tell |

Re: Saints secondary is aiming to be the strength of the defense
I head several players say their focus will be man to man more this year. I agree the emphasis on cover 2 is because they need extra work there to be more complete.
