@bwalk_22: Do you think Vonn Bell will have the starting free safety job before midseason?
JD: No, I don’t. But that’s not the same as saying I don’t think he’ll start – he could open in some of the sub-packages, and I think he’ll play a lot of snaps that way. The truth is, we still haven’t actually seen the Jairus Byrd that the New Orleans Saints signed as a free agent; he’s been injured and simply hasn’t been himself. But I don’t believe Bell will beat out Byrd as a starter at free safety if Byrd is healthy (unfortunately, a big “if”), although I do believe Bell will play a lot because of his coverage abilities and his ball skills.
