Saints re-sign safety D.J. Swearinger (1 Viewer)

This is a very underrated player; very happy to have him back on the roster. He will be outstanding depth for us.

I agree. Swearinger is a dog, and he brings vet intensity to the DB corps.

This moves makes the possibility of Vonn Bell settling and returning to the Saints about 0.0%

Nothing wrong with having an ex-starter as a backup. Very good re-sign. Now to re-sign Omameh

Does he play special teams at all? Just curious, I’ve never noticed.

Yes I'm afraid so, but we should be fine without him. Malcom Jenkins, Marcus Williams, C.J. Gardner-Johnson, D.J. Swearinger, and Saquan Hampton is about as good of a safety group we have ever had. With Marcus Lattimore and Janoris Jenkins manning the starting corner spots, this could potentially be the best defensive backfield we have ever fielded.

It looks great on paper; hopefully it all comes together.

And yes, Swearinger is definitely a dog...he brings that certain type of swagger anytime he is on the field.

Need at least another startable corner. I wonder if we hold on to PJ....?

This is such a crucial signing. It’s very clear to me now that the Saints planned on all of this. No coincidence that the end of season additions are signed and part of next season. DJ played well in the limited snaps. I didn’t realize it but he could have been playing Bell out of a rich contract.

 

[Consigliere]

Nice highlights - he was able to tackle a Vikings receiver, so we'd better hold on to him.

 

[Deucewildin]

We need a Outside CB i PJ doesn’t fit that bill I wanted him back but as a Dual Safety I think that role has just been filled meaning he’s being shown the door as well as Bell.

Bring PJ back, sign Mychal Kendricks if cleared, draft Kristian Fulton, defense set

Marshon, not Marcus.

Swearinger is more of a SS I believe.
Does anyone know which safety spot Jenkins plays?

 

[busdriver]

Saints a def going CB this draft.

He's a SS, too. But more of a coverage SS
