Drew Brees anxious to test the New Orleans Saints new defense
 

One interesting battle that will be anxious to see is the boastful challenge that newly drafted rookie defensive back Corey White made to Brees not long after he was drafted.

When asked about if he was excited to practice against Brees he said:

“Oh yeah. It’s going to be fun picking off some balls from Drew Brees. It is going to be real fun.”

Brees responded in kind to White saying on his Twitter feed:

To my guy Corey White. Love your confidence, but I will throw 10 over your head for every 1 time you get me. Make sure you’re workin!

While you’ve got to love the confidence in White, you can probably bank on Brees’ statement being the one that comes true. Silly rookie, picks aren’t for kids.

I hope White backs up that confidence with actual play!

Can't fault whites confidence, he just has to back it up, we need players with swagger on defense

Cornerbacks notoriously have to be over confident, it's a tough position to play

I'd be anxious to pick my nose after signing the contract he just signed. It wouldn't take much is my point...

:banana:

Just don't let TMZ catch you in the act...

The last time Drew warmed up against a new defense we won the Superbowl.

Honestly, I'm more anxious to see Drew test some other team's defense. Man, I'm ready for some football!

Our defense facing the best during practice only makes them better...

White better have a teflon mind,

I'm anxious to see Matty Ryan test our new middle linebacker.
