Non-Saints: Jairus Byrd out with knee injury

Rugby Saint II · 05-29-2016, 10:20 AM

Let him school the rookie and play Byrd as much as possible. Let Bell get a season under his belt and we can kiss most of Byrds contract buh bye next year.

At this point, like in the Galette situation but for completely different reasons, it's just time to cut bait and move on.

We cant
Its simply too expensive
Next year will still be 8ml in dead money. Expecting a june cut to spread the hit

Can Bell play SS? Could be a wicked tandam Bell at SS with Byrd at FS? Unless Byrd's leg want heel I can't see him being let go either.

Byrd is both poorly coached and has played very poorly

He is 40 yards deep (that is on the coaches) and never converges on the ball or whiffs when it comes his way

One forced fumble in the 2014 Atlanta opener and a key intercept in one game last year - outside of that - nothing

Panthers 2nd game
3rd qtr - 3rd and goal on 17, four backs in endzone, he just stands there as his guy walks catches one in the endzone
4th - cam hits gwynn in stride, play is coming right to him, he manages put put an arm on him, doesnt break stride, td

14 points fully attrubuted to Byrd

Injury aside
Byrd has seen plenty of time on the field last year and the first 4 games (all losses) in 2014
He has completely lost any tenacity he had

Byrd is a true bust

I disagree! His knee/back injury has hampered him since he's been here:

Kid can and will play if injuries have finally healed... and don't forget DA is a secondary guru. Remember what he did with Porter...

Pretty hard to find much tape on Byrd

Look at his numbers
Injury or no

Start of 2014 seaon he played injury free
and was invisible

You sir are wrong; he had back surgery as soon as he signed in 2014 before he ever played a down...

Saints' Jairus Byrd has back surgery to fix disc issue - NFL.com

He never was 100%, if I remember correctly...

Byrd appeared to be damaged goods. He immediately needed back surgery to repair a herniated disc, causing him to miss most of the offseason program.

I don't think he's been 100% since his rookie season, awful signing, especially money wise.

So if Byrd is still having lingering injury how does he play with "better coaching?"
