missed this from the Payton presser-

First-round pick Malcolm Jenkins will start out at cornerback, fourth-round pick Chip Vaughn will start out at free safety, and third-year veteran Usama Young will be moved to free safety.So the depth chart now looks like this, with a lot of wiggle room in the pecking order:

CB - Tracy Porter, Jabari Greer, Randall Gay, Malcolm Jenkins, Leigh Torrence, Jason David

FS - Darren Sharper, Pierson Prioleau, Chip Vaughn, Usama Young

SS - Roman Harper, Chris Reis

I would have never thought that we would have too much depth.


IMHO, Starters will be-

CB- Greer, M.Jenkins
Nickel- T.Porter: experts say he is the ideal nickel.
FS- D.Sharper
SS- R.Harper

SFP- The saints always have 5 DB's on the field all the time. Don't know if G.Williams will change it, but T.Porter will still always be on the field if thats what you are WTFing me for.

Harper will start. And he is not that bad where we have to get a look at a backup. The OLB is where we should be looking for someone.

He might be, but IMO and the opinion of experts......M.Jenkins is too good not to start somewhere. And they say porter will dominate at the nickel posistion where he will go against the speedy slot recievers and not against the taller recievers. Jenkins is a taller, more aggresive guy who is prolly the best at covering the M.Colston type guys.

Never did I say EVERY play. I meant he will be out there a lot. And since our OLBs suck dick. We will do a lot of 2 LB sets putting an extra DB in.

Chip Vaughn


I thought he was more of SS, who will play close to the line and is good at run support

Wouldnt he back up Roman?
