Of course they believe in him. That doesn't make them right. Just like I could be wrong... or right. He is nevertheless unproven. You seem to lack definition of certain words like "project" and "unproven". I don't care if the Saints have watched this guy sleep every night, eat in the morning, practice, take a dump and shower... Until you play somebody, you are unproven.

Myles Jack and Jaylon Jones were selected in the second round, despite the fact that they may never fully recover. Does that sound like teams doing homework, or hoping for the best? What's my point? You are naive if you think teams don't operate on gut feelings as much as film, when they see an athletic player.

	If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
