Roman Harper will not be released. When will everyone get this? Whether you like it or not, Jenkins and Harper will be on thenroster as safeties next year. It's 8 million dollars to Harper of the next 2 years. Argue with me about what the websites say if you want, but the way his contract is structured he has 8 million dollars guaranteed to him for the next 2 years.
Anthony spencer will be an OLB in the 3-4. His biggest strength is his coverage abilities.
If Ed Reed takes a big enough pay cut to play for the Saints, then the Ravens will be able to afford to bring him back for a year or 2.
With the amount of talent at OLB and that being the biggest hole in the defense. Why would the saints pass on one in the first round? For a safety? The last time the saints did that, they took Jenkins over Cushing and Mathews. You actually think they are going to do it again?
Anthony spencer is not a pass rushing OLB! He is a coverage OLB. The only reason he got his sacks is because he was playing opposite Ware and took advantage I double teams on blitz plays. Even if Spencer is signed, he wouldn't be a fix to the lack of pass rush that the defense has.
