The most valuable players on our defense last year were our two corners.

Sharper provided incredible veteran leadership on that defense. Not to mention that he made play after play.

I am not saying he was the best athlete...or even the best player. Just that players like him add more to a team than people think.

This is one of those times where you see if a players about the money or the game. He will break records if he stays with the Saints. His future is murky if he moves on for more money.

he's no Larry Brown, but agreed he's too old to be going out looking for a mountain of money

You guys realize that SaintJ is just baiting you into bragging about how awesome Sharper is, right?

Kinda like how Sharper just baits QBs into throwing picks? Sharper isn't that great. He's a tremendous playmaker, but a well-rounded, elite safety he is not.

      We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.

      This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.

      Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
