After that performance

SaintsBro · 12-21-2014, 03:59 PM

SEC or AAC or Big 10 or whatever, it's all the same, they need to stop drafting so many guys from John Jay Haircutting College or people who majored in water polo or rock climbing instead of football, or guys with huge personal question marks floating around them. Too many "reaches" and "projects" and "raw talent" in the draft classes on this team. Need some solid talent players from big time programs that know how to create football players, and who can come right in and contribute.

They say we lost our "leadership" on defense -- Harper, Vilma, Will Smith, Sedrick Ellis -- every single one of those guys was from a BIG school program, not from Samford or the University of Rangoon. These bargain basement, grab bag players are not going to get it done on defense.

We might just reaaaally suck at developing talent on top of this too...

Baptiste came from Nebraska. Vacarro came from Texas. Jenkins came from Georgia. Big schools.

Yep... our organization simply hadn't done their homework in the scouting dept.
I think both KV and Jenkins will vastly improve however I'm not so sure what to think about SJB

While they could vastly improve those guys from the SEC can win NOW. Jenkins, however, has been a backup, and when it comes to drafting defense Georgia is probably one of the schools to avoid. I was wrong about OSU though we should have drafted Roby. Meyer really does make the difference. SEC, OSU, FSU, Clemson, these are the schools to draft from.
