In 2014, he played in four games with zero starts. Had a difficult time during the 2015 training camp and just was beat regularly in preseason games in 2015. He was released after the final 2015 preseason game. Four games, zero starts for a 2nd round pick. The Saints passed on wide receivers Jarvis Landry and Allen Robinson, offensive guard Trai Turner and quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to select Jean-Baptiste.

I liked to forget the bust. It won’t be the last reach in Payton’s tenure.

Measurables alone have burned Payton time and time again, yet he doesn't learn. Davenport being one of the latest.

We need to keep Marcus Williams to start, we can’t start over at safety it would be a huge mistake letting him walk

He's a gambler and he is going to win more than he loses when he moves up in the draft. It's why we have had such a strong roster. It will probably play out differently this year though and we'll move back. Our line men mostly come in the first round. We are good with our third round picks overall with productive 4th round players and UDFA's. And there is always someone there who slipped for whatever reason.

A new face coaching the back end may be just the answer to our lack of focus in the secondary. Let's hope so anyway.
