"Killer" Cam Jordan

WhoDatFan26 · 11-18-2013, 10:59 AM

I will admit when we drafted him in 2011, I wasn't too familiar with him. I read up on him leading into the draft and figured he would be a solid player. Amazingly he reminds me of one of my All-Time Favorite Saints D-Linemen Wayne Martin. I remember in 1989, I was puzzled as to who he was and why were we drafting him but he later showed flashes in his rookie year and blossomed throughtout his career to I believe the tune of 80+ sacks. Now fast forward to 2011 and Cam Jordan, I see much the same. I thought he was just a step slow in his rookie year to many sacks, but I thought nothing of it. Then last year he has 8 sacks and is on pace to easily have 10 this season. If Akiem Hicks can follow the same path as Cam, our D-Line will be a strength for years to come. What do you guys think?

I'm not one to normally do this. I wouldn't even know how to go back and find the old posts, but I know I said it more than once when we drafted him. I was happy, and felt like he was going to do big things for us!! Glad I was right (for once).

He disappeared for a couple of games there but yesterday may have been one of his better games as a Saint. It was definitely Hicks best game as a Saint. It looks like we have finally learned how to draft defense. Suddenly we have a lot of young up and coming players with what looks to be a high ceiling. Can only get better.

I actually wasn't all that thrilled when we drafted him; figured he was more of a run-stopping DE than a pass rusher. Well, surprise! He's both...thrilled as hell last year and now, obviously.
