And what niche is that? Must be infinitesimal, because he just spent the 2015 season playing like one of the worst Saints' defenders of all time, and that is really saying something.

Either very short zone corner or dealing with tall slower WRs. The Saints did him no favors by having him play pure man coverage without great safety help over the top.

You can legit go back to the threads when he was first signed and see Pats/Seahawks fans telling you guys he's good at what he does, but an insanely niche player. He also caused way too many penalties to ever be considered great.

Dudes also old, so he had lost any speed he previously had
