this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; He's not a zone guy ... Let him run man with the second receiver where his frame and length give him advantages... The QB may just hold on one second longer , that changes the game. It's either a sack ...

Re: Saints' search for second starting cornerback failed from the start
He's not a zone guy ... Let him run man with the second receiver where his frame and length give him advantages... The QB may just hold on one second longer , that changes the game. It's either a sack or a blatant holding penalty because galette is relentless.
Can't look at the glass half empty with him. Yes he could fail and so on , but he could also succeed and be the missing link between us and that 4th ranked defense we yearn for. Things could go really well for him. He shuts down a jordy Nelson a kelvin Benjamin , we come back to life in the division , morale gets high. It could give him the confidence to become the next shutdown guy. Always two sides to a coin. The kid is a beast ... Let him play. |

Re: Saints' search for second starting cornerback failed from the start
I'm not so sure we give him more playing time just yet but the "Raw" conversation was used with Terron Armstead and he's arguably our best O lineman now

Armstead & SJB are not the same person, play opposite sides of the ball, play completely different positions...got it. But it's hard to hide behind the "raw" tag when you got a "raw" Armstead starting at LT mid-way through his rookie year last year and has played pretty well since. |

Its not apples to apples in any way shape or form. SJB will play when the coaches think he'll outperform White, Robinson or Dixon. It may be this week, it may be week 12, it may be next year. None of us really know. Armstead didn't start over Brown until week 15 last year. |

Maybe SJB can get in there and contribute at the very least on dime by Week 14 on when we face off against the last 4 teams of the year who all own some big ol' WRs. |

Hasn't he been in the Dime for the last couple of weeks? I thought he was the Dime for some of the Lions game at least..

I reckon this is starting him off slowly. 6th game of the year to be introduced to regular season NFL speed, but we'll need to keep track of how many defensive snaps he gets over the next several weeks to see where the coaches think this kid is. That's the only way I can see of making an assessment on how far along SJB is unless RR or the secondary coach McGriff just comes out and says something about him. |
