Who was available when the Saints drafted Robinson...

TE Rob Gronkowski, NE
LB Navorro Bowman, SF
LB Daryl Washington, AZ
RB Toby Gerhardt, MIN
FS Nate Allen
LB Sean Lee
LB Pat Angerer

We always blow our 1st round pick... only one that has panned out lately is Jordan but he still has a lot to prove...

Man it sure would be nice to have Bowman, Washington or Lee...

Not sure if anyone has said it yet, but Greer looks to be done...

...maybe a trade for third rounder?!?

Maybe done as in contract-wise, but I think he still has some quality years left in him from a purely performance based evaluation.

Last season was tough for him - and for the whole defense for that matter - because he simply couldn't get over those off/preseason injuries he sustained and therefore he was "behind the eight ball" the whole season long.

He is still a quality corner IMO, and the Saints should probably keep hold of him.

Yeah the type of injuries that Greer had at the start of the season are the kind that linger with you, it takes a lot longer to get over them and get "back to game speed" than some people realize. You don't just bounce back in two weeks.

Lewis is an instant starter. Greer will probably be allowed to compete but could be cut. Salary and age are not on his side. I wouldn't be shocked if Lewis and White are the starting CB's when the season opens. I hope the Saints can bring back Marquis Johnson for a look. He played well last preseason before getting injured.

But like Danno pointed out earlier, the fact that Johnson looked so good just goes to prove how bad the other CBs looked in Spag's/Flajole's DB scheme, and how Johnson took advantage of the fact that he was familiar with the scheme.
