Vonn Bell, Free Safety
Bell has had some growing pains since taking over the starting position to be sure, but seems to be playing better with each passing week.
With fellow safety Kenny Vaccaro expected to have a major role in covering Jimmy Graham, Bell MUST be able to help the Saints injury-plagued cornerback group shut down the other Seahawk recievers that include Doug Baldwin — the NFL leader in TD receptions (14) last season.
Vonn was known for his playmaking abilities at Ohio State, and the 2nd round pick needs to start creating turnovers for this defense.
Doing it in what me the biggest game of the entire season for New Orleans, would probably be a good place to start.
