Re: Saints Will Release Jairus Byrd
Was Vonn Bell really that bad? Granted I didn't watch much football last year... but in the snaps I did see, I liked what I saw with Bell. He seems to be around the ball and made some nice plays. I thought I saw some long term potential there.
I'd like to re-iterate... I watched very little football last year. |

Re: Saints Will Release Jairus Byrd
Really interested to see how our CFL signing Forrest Hightower looks in OTA's and training camp. He could be an underrated option at FS.

Re: Saints Will Release Jairus Byrd
We're down a FS with cutting Byrd and I also don't think Harper will be back thats a SS and a FS having to be replaced and with CB.'s that we have made of glass they better do some serious thinking about these moves they are making.

But with release of Byrd it will be interesting to see what the saints do, |

Re: Saints Will Release Jairus Byrd
Vonn Bell quit on a ton of plays where the ball was overthrown, he could have made a big interception in atleast 2-3 games but intentionally slowed down and let the ball hit the turf.
B.W Webb even looked at Vonn with his hands out as if to say " why didn't you catch it?" He is a solid tackler, but the fact he quit on some noticeable plays irked me a little. |
