but letting Porter walk is killing us right now.

Porters been an injury problem since 09, and lost playing time that year too. I have no issue with letting him walk. He missed most of last season.

To me, Malcolm Jenkins has not taken the next step to be an elite safety, despite showing flashes. I think he spends too much time in his own head and not on the play as its happening. I say move him back to corner. Robinson is going to be a serviceable corner. Jury is still out on Patrick.

Really though, it doesn't matter who we have at DB if we continue to get no pressure on the QB. Our D-line is making a lot of money to do nothing. Jordan is playing much better this season. I kinda wish Will Smith was suspended, so Junior Gallette would get some more playing time and we could see if the flashes he has shown will translate every down.

The biggest difference between last season and 09? Turnovers and QB pressure. We gave up almost identical yards, but we were able to get to the QB and cause turnovers in 09.

And really, with as bad as our defense played last season, are you surprised at the way they have played this season?
