That is a lot of coin to spend on for “depth”. And he has knee problems. Another potentially solid player watching from the sidelines.

He'll play plenty whether he starts or not - good health assuming of course.

Recently added to the Ohio State recruiting brochures:

and there is a strong possibility you will end up playing for the New Orleans Saints

I’m liking the Coleman signing more and more.

Kenny Vaccaro won't be back and their skill sets are similar. We run a lot of three safety sets and now we have the depth that will allow us to draft BPA. Initially I wasn't excited abut the signing but he will allow us to hopefully not lose our cohesion in the secondary without KV.

I think this a quality move . Coleman not a star but is a quality starter and class act.

If you can't beat them, join them. Welcome to the team.

New Orleans Saints: The New Orleans Saints acquired a true game-changing talent in Marshon Lattimore with the 11th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. The rookie was an immediate lockdown threat and allowed a 48.1 passer rating in coverage, one of the lowest in the NFL last season. The Defensive Rookie of the Year tracked some of the best receivers in the game across the field, proving he can be a top shadow corner. It would be unwise to overlook his running mate, Ken Crawley. The 2016 undrafted free agent emerged as a strong starter in 2017, allowing just 44.6 percent of the throws sent his way to be caught. New Orleans could possibly look to upgrade the slot corner position after allowing the seventh-most (941) yards last year, but they should be fine with P.J. Williams in the slot for another season.

I am still high on them tendering Breaux and placing him at the slot.
