Re: Saints Sign CB Brian Poole
A guy who's only had success in the slot?
We've got three capable guys backing up Gardner in the slot already... At 5' 9", and a bum shoulder missing seven games last year, this seems like Jason David redux... And he gets targeted often; he rushes the QB, but we've got enough DEs to do that task... |

Re: Saints Sign CB Brian Poole
If they envision Poole in the nickel, does Gardner move to his natural position of SS? I'd be all for the latter...
Is he made the CB2? Gardner has no extensive film to support that he has the skill set to play outside CB? While I'm all for Gardner taking over at SS, Haley and PJ Williams were fine in the nickel... Why are we throwing money away on another nickel when we need a WRz more? If we needed to sign anything for the defensive backfield, it was an outside CB... Jets now have Arthur Maulet and we get Brian Poole?!? |

Re: Saints Sign CB Brian Poole
D.A. must really be doing a number on Sean to get so many resources for his secondary...
RCB (2) 23 - Marshon Lattimore, 26 - P.J. Williams (FA 2021), 38 - Keith Washington Jr. NCB (2) 34 - Brian Poole, 30 - Grant Haley (RFC 2021), 31 - Bryce Thompson (UDFA 2021), 35 - Lawrence Woods (UDFA 2021) FS (2) 43 - Marcus Williams (Non-Exclusive Franchise Tag 2021), 48 - J.T. Gray (FA 2021), 32 - Eric Burrell (UDFA 2021) SS (2) 27 - Malcolm Jenkins, 22 - Chauncey Gardner, 36 - Deuce Wallace (FA 2021) LCB (2) 29 - Paulson Adebo (R3, P76), 21 - Patrick Robinson, 25 - Ken Crawley (FA 2021) Crawley would appear to be odd-man out now... |

Re: Saints Sign CB Brian Poole
Maybe he's loading up the defense because he knows the offense is going to suck balls this year. Lol

“ Or maybe he's loading up the defense because he has confidence in his offense.”
I tend to lean towards this way of thinking. Considering what was lost player wise from both sides of the ball I have more confidence in the Offense going into the season by a slight bit. |
