This guy can be more than a "camp body." He's a pretty decent nickel DB who got screwed by NO because they moved him around too much.

Touchdown Cowboys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If he doesn't fit in the Ryan scheme, he might be perfect for us!

"has him rated as the No. 106 cornerback out of 108 qualifying players."

Wow.

 

[sureletsrace]

The fans on the Saints forum seem really glad he's gone, though I did read a few posts saying he's got real talent and that he just got thrown into the fire and switched around too much.

 

[CowboyChris]

Saint fans are very happy he is gone. fwiw

Wow.

"Wow" that someone would put any emphasis on PFF rankings.

 

[fredp22]

but we need fullbacks. they seem to address every position but the fullback. No way do I want to roll into the new season without bringing in at least 4 or 5 more and maybe a 2nd round pick

 

[davey999]

And I thought we hadn't improved our D...

 

[5Stars]

He is very young...24. Nothing wrong with giving a kid more chances.

I think Garrett is trying to turn this team into a PeeWee team!

 

[justbob]

Frees us up to draft a TE in the second.

 

[Alexander]

I like this signing compared to the rest of what we have dug out of the scrap heap.

Good size and length.

"has him rated as the No. 106 cornerback out of 108 qualifying players."

Wow.

So you are saying there's a chance....

 

[justbob]

Safety or corner?

 

[Risen Star]

Safety or corner?

Both but played more corner for the Saints.
