Pretty cool; that someone who hardly saw the field last year, is getting so much praise this year.

As it is with Robinson. Ingram, Jordan, Wilson, Tennant, Hall, and Patrick.

Some people just don't like Junior for some reason, and it doesn't make sense to me. He looks like an exciting young player with a high ceiling.

For Saints fans to NOT get excited about him disappoints me.

If Canton thinks he is rubbish he must be good. He is an expert, he is just expert at being wrong.

lol all you guys blindly hyping a player doesnt make him any better. he might be the best DE to ever play but nobody knows that yet. dont build a guy up that didnt show enough to see the field last year. heck, he didnt even show enough in college to get drafted. someone please tell me why anybody should buy the ridiculous hype he gets from fans? no other teams care about our 3rd string DE and theres a reason for that

1 - No one is blindly hyping him
2 - He did see the field last year, albeit not much.
3 - Gregg Williams is excited about him.
4 - What exactly is ridiculous about a player showing a lot of potential in training camp, for the 2nd year in a row.
5 - If no other team cared, why did he make the 53 instead of simply being cut and signed to our practice squad?

This sounds exactly like your comments about Pierre Thomas as an UDFA rookie going into his 2nd season. How'd that work out for ya'?

Wow! I guess PT is crap because he wasn't drafted...and Colston? Yeah, he was an afterthought at draft time. He's crap too. How many others weren't drafted yet went on to successful careers? Your logic sucks pond water my friend.

As for buying 'ridiculous hype'...well what, pray tell, qualifies your opinion over anyone else's?

Nadda.
