I'm one of the few that thinks Roman will be in a better spot considering Ryan's scheme. He will be asked to play close to the line more, and that's his best attribute, playing more like a rover.
How many defensive coordinators do we have to fire before we find one that makes Roman Harper look good?

He's played in 3 systems in his career and looked terrible in a ll 3, this will be his 4th. He needs to go.

He looked pretty good under Williams actually, the guy made the pro bowl.

When asked to cover, like he was with Spags, he will do pretty bad. But, as far as playing the run and being close to the line/blitzing, he is a very good safety. He will be asked to do a lot of this in this scheme, even more so than with Gregg.

True, but guys like Will Smith getting stonewalled when they rush the passer doesn't help out Harper's cause any either. I'm tired of seeing Smith get the bulk of the snaps up front.

He can still do a decent job stopping the run at times. He seemed to play well against Atlanta and Tampa Bay but other than that, he didn't do much. He might do better in this new 3-4 defense but I'd rather see somebody else win that job.
