Let the other suckers develop the talent, I want the Saints to reload, not rebuild, and be perennial contenders... |

Re: Jean Baptiste
I think we'll see more safeties on the field if something like that occurs. I think worse case scenario with Lewis is that he misses a game or two. I hope it isn't anything serious.

Re: Jean Baptiste
Quick conversation reenactment after the SJB pass break up:
Wife: That's your homeboy huh #33 Me: Yeah SJB Wife: Well he sho... need to be his ass in better position! Didn't he give up a TD last week. ( I did explain to her that he was in perfect position last week and given the time to develop he would come up with that play) Me: He's a rookie. He's learning the position. Wife: What the Hell was he doing his whole college career Me: Actually he was converted from a wide receiver so he has only been a corner 2 seasons. Wife: Maybe they should have drafted him for that....... When you put that jersey on you supposed to be able to come out here and play. Is there any such thing as needs time to develop, or Raw when it comes to talent starved Saints fans. What's the rush? We didn't rush Terron Armstead.... and now look at him. I haven't seen SJB beaten completely on any plays. And yesterday he actually got in front of a route, and probably makes a play if the ball is better thrown. There shouldn't be any rush. You have the veteran presence and the depth the bring SJB up properly. Use it!!!! |
You shouldn't throw stones if you live in a glass house, and if have a glass jaw you should watch your mouth..... cause I'll break your face!!! -50 cent

Re: Jean Baptiste
He's still a 2 year project. I like his upside and I'm sure Ryan has a plan for him in certain packages but he doesn't look like he's ready to move ahead of White or Robinson yet.

Re: Jean Baptiste
Biggest issue he has is playing "off coverage" he gets beat all day by the short throws.

Re: Jean Baptiste
Baptiste will be fine. Every rookie corner strugles, that's a fact. P. Peterson was below average (in coverage) in his rookie year. I'm worried about White. If we don't use him right we will have Malcolm Jenkins 2.0. Great play, awful play...
