CB Keenan Lewis a Saint (page 6 update)

03-13-2013, 02:10 PM

Free agent CB Keenan Lewis will visit the Saints.

Along with much of the cornerback market, Lewis has yet to be the subject of serious buzz as Aqib Talib, Brent Grimes, and Sean Smith all remain unsigned. Lewis was a zone corner in Pittsburgh, though we suspect he'd play plenty of man in Rob Ryan's mixed-coverage defense. Lewis turns 27 years old this May.

he played a lot of press coverage in college.

Negatives: Questionable deep speed. ... Lacks the soft hands for the interception. ... Misjudges passes and allows too many to get into his chest. ... Generally a reliable open-field tackler, but likes to duck his head and swipe, leading to some missed tackles. ... Can get a bit grabby downfield, which will lead to pass interference calls at the next level. ... Willing in run support, but was protected by a physical and experienced front seven, and prefers to stand around the pile, rather than throw his body into it.

Playing with the Ravens corrected many of these issue

sub 4.5 guy coming out of college but did a 4.42 shuttle and a 6.89 cone

We are looking at bigger corners aswell

Keenan lewis 6"0 200lbs and derek cox 6"1 and around the same weight I believe

I dont know how long greer has left but if we sign both these corners (which i hope!) Move pat robinson or greer to nickle back

Slow your roll!!! Keenan Lewis is OK! he only got to play because Ike got hurt and didnt start playing well until late in the season...I dont know to much about Cox only that he's been injury prone..Lets leave Rob Ryan to decide who gets moved where....I mean sheesh! we havent even signed or seen them in action yet

I'd prefer Cox mainly because I think he could be had for less - his medicals need to check out first of course.

he is a player worth rolling the dice on. he has been improving every year (4yrs) and when forced into the starters roll he stepped up and played well. I say if the money is right take the risk. It is a safer risk than any draft pick

let the docs look at him and see if this is chronic but he is just like Lewis but has better hands

remember rob inherited most of his player and while he was in charge he did not ..... gag rule activated
