RE: D. Rob new position maybe?
I voted Yes, but my only concern is are we confident enough to allow franks/owens/walls play the #2 spot... To me, and watching through the season I don't feel confident with that group, other than maybe Hayden.

Owens; plays fantastic ST reference the Minnesota and Saints game, but every time he's been on the Field for the Defense he's showed me 2 plays where he actually did what he was supposed to and at the rest of the time he just seems lost and doesn't know what he's doing.

Franks; solid player, but again falls into the Owens mold, doesn't seem to know what his assignment is on the Field. I think it was the first Saints game (correct me if I'm wrong) but there was a 3-wide set on the field, and Franks was covering the Slot WR, play starts and he was covering someone else and allows a TD, in which we saw Grimes trying to make a play on. Not something I'd want to see in the #2 corner.

D. walls; haven't seen anything that thinks he's ready.

Hayden; the only CB i think could handle the #2 opposite of Grimes and not be terrible. The only concern is health. When he was healthy I liked what I saw in his game play. I honestly thought he should've started over Dunta after a few weeks of starting that Nickel. BUT now that he's on IR with a Toe injury, I don't know if we're willing to keep more injury prone players on the roster.

My hope is that Owens/Franks can finally understand the speed and scheme of the Defense well enough to not allow big plays to happen, in the case we move Dunta to FS/SS.

Sorry for the Rant.
