But I have been quite happy with Horton

Safeties are very important. Look at how much our defense improved when we got Sean Taylor. But more importantly it is a very physical and violent position. We have been lucky, probably because our safeties are young, but Safeties like LB's get hurt pretty regularly. It is important to have competent back ups.
