now that we are 10,897,320 under the cap

Yes harper can play safety and he will do great! year before last he was ranked as the top blitzing safety in the league. Everyone needs to understand that Spags was a HORRIBLE DC he never used players strengths he just tried to make them fit into his scheme and thats not how football works. Harper will be Back blitzing and covering TEs and RBs out of the back field like he is good at and Rob Ryan is great as using players to their strengths. Spags had MJ blitzing 3 times to Harpers 1 and asking Harper to cover #1 WR man up and he's just not fast enough to do it. Spags had their roles reversed, and i believe we will see a huge change in the productivity in our defense if we make a few key moves.

Yes i understand our cap situation very well obviously you don't. Every year we go into panic mode thinking we don't have any money to spend and everyone freaks out but the funny thing is, we always have enough money to make aggressive moves and this year will be no different. There are still moves we can make to make cap room, and we will do it. We have glaring holes at a Top CB and a great #2 receiver to take pressure off Colston and Graham. We may be able to draft a CB that could be that guy but i don't see it happening and i don't see any awesome WR in this draft. We have to make a move and we will do it. we have to have a guy that can cover Julio Jones and Vincent Jackson twice a year and not constantly get burned or just out matched. Namdi or Sean Smith or Rodgers- Cromartie, they are those guys and we NEED one. We will have the money to spend if we want it.
