Get him!

No.

I really liked him when he was playing for LSU and the football talent is undoubtly there. I you would just consider that I would love to have him. But all the off the field issues scares me. We can't afford a 3rd or 4th round pick on a guy that might get suspended for drug violations or what not the second week of the season.

Maybe with the 6th and definitely if he somehow goes undrafted, but there probably are better risk/reward picks out there than him.

I'm thinkin' he'd be a better match for Denver or Seattle if you know what I mean....

if he is there in the fourth you have to think about it long and hard. in my book the fifth round would be hard not to pull the trigger.

i think he would be instant impact on special teams.

the sixth ? you really have to not trust the kid if you did not take him

I just want bigger DBs because the Saints have enough of the smaller variety already.

And, like Danno, I don't want to risk any of the limited number of picks this year on players with red flags.

I see him as a return man. He is too small to play DB in the NFL in my opinion.
His stats from 2011 has him with only 11 passes defended in 13 games. I just don't see him matching up well with Julio Jones, Roddy White, Vincent Jackson and the rest of the 6'4" receivers in the league. If he goes undrafted, sure take a look at him but I wouldn't draft him.

He's not going undrafted. Besides the weak output on the bench, he's tearing up the DB drills.

He strikes me as someone that has played on natural ability and skill... His skills and ability have been greater than the college athletes he has faced... That being said the NFL will be different and a work ethic is required most of the time to excel.

I am not familiar with his work ethic but I have trouble fitting substance abuse into a training regimen.
