Cameron Jordan wants Saints to add a couple cornerbacks in 2017 draft

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I want a cornerback in the 2nd round, Tre'davious White of LSU to be specific. My gut tells me we should draft Reuben Foster if he's available at 11. We have to continue to improve the speed of our defense. ...

Re: Cameron Jordan wants Saints to add a couple cornerbacks in 2017 draft

I want a cornerback in the 2nd round, Tre'davious White of LSU to be specific. My gut tells me we should draft Reuben Foster if he's available at 11. We have to continue to improve the speed of our defense. We are much faster at DT with Fairley and Rankins. Vonn Bell has excellent speed for a safety. Hopefully we can add a quality pass rusher on the other side of Jordan via free agency and add one or two 3rd down, pass rusher specialists for depth. So me, I'm going LB if Foster is there, DE if he isn't....or maybe Jabril Peppers.

Saints meet with LSU CB Tre'Davious White at Senior Bowl | NOLA.com

Thought this was worth sharing (in case you hadn't already read it) .

"In no way" is quite strong, and "everyone on the team would agree" is inaccurate. I am not an expert on all subjects and don't pretend to know things that I possibly couldn't, but I doubt Swann, Breaux, Williams, Webb, Crawley and Moore would welcome 2 new corners.

Maybe Cam should have wished that the guys we have would get healthy, not replaced

yeah I couldn't agree more. I usually think pics could go either way and this year I think this is the right call and any others I will be calling for their heads.

Not to get off track but I'm really crossing my fingers on the overall health for PJ this off season. The past injury and subsequent season ending concussion (Giants) was scary. Hopefully he returns 100%.

Well, Matthew, the team may be in agreement with you...

"Cameron Jordan wants Saints to add a couple cornerbacks in 2017 draft"

Really? Is this the same guy that said we don't need Josh Norman and went all crazy on twitter?

Can Cam tell us his Free agent list so Mickey wouldn't upset him...

That is in response to the facebook live posting by Antonio Brown. I wouldn't doubt that this may be a league wide plan.

Can you post where Jordan went "all crazy" on twitter saying the Saints don't need Norman? I can't remember that and have not been able to find any reference.

There were a few of the Saints players that tweeted in support of trying to sign Josh Norman. I don't remember any of them not wanting it.
