Re: Pass Rusher In Hand, Saints Take Aim At Unlocking Marcus Davenport's Immense Potential
Two first round picks and a fifth - lot of pressure on all involved to have immediate outstanding results...
Another reason I don't like Payton's call to spend that kind of draft capital on one player that's not a franchise quarterback... |

Re: Pass Rusher In Hand, Saints Take Aim At Unlocking Marcus Davenport's Immense Potential
Nielson will coach him up and give him the technique to win at the line. We have a great teacher showing a super talented kid what he needs to have to get the fan base super charged. Eventually we won't even care about the cost.
I've been involved with rugby for close to 40 years and I've seen kids with zero athletic ability put it together after a few seasons. I've also see big boys come in and make an impact immediately who become dominant forces early......and others who take awhile to develop but become premier rugby players with some solid coaching, technique development and valuable playing time. Drills are essential to learning but putting it together on the field is what makes it click. I short I believe Nielson and Young have to be excited about what Davenport can do for the defense with a little training. |
