Saints Will Release Jairus Byrd

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; If there was ever a draft deep on defense this is it. A lot of mid to late round talent. I just wish there were more stellar WR's so better defenders would fall right to us. And I hope those ...

If there was ever a draft deep on defense this is it. A lot of mid to late round talent. I just wish there were more stellar WR's so better defenders would fall right to us. And I hope those QB's go early. Not much talent there. I don't think any of them deserve to be in the 1st round to be honest.

Byrd was a complete liability in the backfield, he had 82 tackles but how many did he miss? How many of those were made further beyond the line of scrimmage than they should have been because of poor angles? he was terrible and his 2 picks came in one game when it didn't matter anymore. Time for an attitude change on D.

While the Saints are clearing books from the Byrd mess, are they letting Terry Fontenot Director Pro Scouting the past four years (Byrd, Spiller, Browner) go?!?

What does this release mean to us financially? This one aspect of the game I struggle to grasp.

Re: Saints Will Release Jairus Byrd

I like the move, but now wondering what the real plan is? the reason I say that is Vonn Bell does not appear to be an upgrade at this point, but he was only a rookie so we shall see.

Re: Saints Will Release Jairus Byrd

I am not overly surprised by the move but I thought next year would have been the year but the saints must have a plan.

FA?
Micah Hyde FS/SS Green Bay Packers (26) / 6'0' / 197 / Rd. 5 (159) / GB

Draft?
Marcus Williams FS Utah 5116 195 4.56 #20 Jr
Eddie Jackson FS/CB Alabama 6000 194 4.53 #4 Sr
David Jones FS/SS/KR Richmond 6015 210 4.53 #13 rSr

Are the saints giving Vonn Bell the job?
