Who's worse?


I was rewatching our Super Bowl victory vs the Colts and saw an eerily resemblance between the two. I also saw a resemblance between Kamara and Addai from that game.

I would wear an Usama Young jersey everyday for the rest of my life and let him marry my daughter if it meant never having to see Harris in a Saints jersey ever again.

Harris is much worse. Young was actually good his first year here, then became very mediocre. Harris has just been bad bad bad.

ETA: Jason David would have been a better comparison based on position and badness.

That’s pretty strong! But I agree with your assessment. I don’t know how this guy is on an NFL roster. Got to be better than that on the scrap pile!

My only objection is that Usama Young came in and immediately gave up a touchdown after one of our corners got hurt that game. Jason David atleast made some plays.

I don't agree with the David comparison either. He actually had a fair amount of picks and pass deflections.

Harris was close enough on one pass. About every other time he's been 5-10 yards off.

I don’t understand how Harris is on a NFL roster. He was very very bad on a very very bad TAMU defense.

Hey Usama had that 1 pick in the Rams game in 09 when Sharp was out, I can't even remember Harris making a tackle.

We've had quite a few CBs in the Payton era who are on the shitlist. Let's review:

Jason David
Patrick Robinson (except one year)
Corey White (though he flashed good imo)
Johnny Patrick
Stanley Jean-Baptiste
Brandon Browner
BW Webb
DeVante Harris


I honestly think Harris might be the worst of them. At least for almost all of the others you can find something redeeming about them.

Except Browner, unless you get excited by your player setting a record for defensive holding penalties.

The positive I think for browner was locker room leadership.

SJB was the worst. He was a 2nd round pick & never played a regular season snap for us. He also couldn't even beat out Brian Dixon (who also belongs on this list). Dixon was a rookie tryout (not even an udfa) from Southwest Missouri State IIRC.

Sadly enough...Brian Dixon actually got a lot of playing time in his 2 years here. Mostly due to our other CB's getting injured though.

Usama Bin Laden is a better comparison.

The fact that you compared kamara to Addai just made your post irrelevant

Isn’t Patrick Robinson killing it now?

Why the downvotes? Thomas towards the end of his time with the Saints was unwatchable. His bad play invented the name Toast.
