I don't think so, not yet. Good special teamer and depth right now. I think the team likes Anthony Harris more as his strength is coverage.

But I think our coaches want to let 1 of our safeties gamble a bit and go for the big plays, and the other play assignment-focused, more conservatively. If they start Kearse, it's for his big-play ability - so do you make Harrison Smith the "stay at home" guy? I doubt that. Zimmer keeps trying to turn a CB into a S to partner with Smith (Blanton, Exum, Tocho) which suggests he wants coverage discipline there. I think Kearse's role here will be as Smith's backup.@StickyBun said:

I think his preference is to have interchangeable Safeties...definitely like Tocho...if you didn't, read the link I posted on him it's worthwhile...
