I think Vilma and Smith get cut, but I'm not sure about Harper.

I said it in another thread, but I just don't see us restructuring Harper. Look at the players we have restructured. These are players that the team plan to keep around for a while, and have no problem pushing their money back to future years (for example this year: Lofton, Bunkley, Hawthorne, and Colston). Why would the Saints push back some of Harper's salary to future years if they are considering cutting him? I don't see him taking a pay cut either, why would he agree to that?

I see them drafting his replacement this year, and allowing both of them to be on the roster to allow for some time to develop. I still think Harper is an above average strong safety. He's not worth what he is being paid, but still I think he will shine this year in the Ryan 3-4.
