Lawrence Wilson - MLB

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; He's in his 2nd season and flashed against scrubs. Any of you draft gurus know anything about him? Is he stricly a camp body or does he have some decent back-up potential?...

LOL at the fact that you seem to get less suspension time for an ILLEGAL drug than you do for one that is merely prohibited by NFL regulation

Fate certainly has given him his opportunities...

He played at the NorthEast powerhouse Uconn where an injury to a starter allowed him to start as a redshirt freshman and he put up numbers...

Led UConn, Big East in tackles his junior, senior seasons; is that always a good thing?!??

Has shown flashes for big plays (interceptions returned TD); but there has been focus problems on down-to-down action which probably allows him to get picked on whereby he's responded with some playmaking ability...

Great Motor, Speed, Occasional Playmaker

Average to Slightly Undersized, Doesn't Shed Blocks Well, Undisciplined/Overpursues...

Biggest Flags: Can't Lay Off the Bong, Lacks Consistent Down-to-down Play


It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
