this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Am I the only one who wants Delvin Breaux to find another team that guys cost us more in penalties than any other corner back in the league. He is horrible in coverage and can't seem to keep his hands ...

Am I the only one who wants Delvin Breaux to find another team that guys cost us more in penalties than any other corner back in the league. He is horrible in coverage and can't seem to keep his hands off of receivers. He needs to be the first one cut.

But rather his ability to keep his hands off of wide receivers and to get his head turned around to make a play on the ball that, I have not seen from him yet. Again, I truly hope that I am wrong in that going into next year, if he is still on the team, he can get his head around to make a play on the ball and not grab and pull receivers. If he does not stop that behavior no matter what he will be released from the team. One other thing, I would love for him to get out of the number one spot for most penalized corner back in the league. The team cannot afford those 15 yard penalties that seem to always be at the wrong time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: The 2017 Byrd quandary
He's also the best CB we have. You don't cut anyone until you're sure you can upgrade.
