Maybe because he has been battling injuries and not been healthy.

I don’t think he’s going to be back at his pro bowl level but I do believe he is better than PJ. You get Breaux at vet min he’s a steal.

I want him back! That man is motivated even more thanks to our doctors. He has talent and he deserves better.......

I don't think Crawley will regress, I just believe he's limited. 6" 190 at best. He can run ok. I think his quickness is average but his top speed is pretty good. Big, physical WRs will always give him trouble. The best part of Crawley's game is he has decent hands and ball skills. If you make a mistake, he'll pick you off. If our pass rush becomes elite, Crawley could be a real solid starter. Oh and despite his light weight, he is willing to come up and tackle aggressively, though he'll never be a big hitter. If we could draft Donte Jackson late, I think he could possibly beat out Crawley or definetely be an upgrade over Swann. So many Tigers this year could help us. And many might be late picks or free agents. Will Clapp-great OL who can play center or guard. Russel Gage-probably wont be drafted is a great athlete who could be a Golden Tate type WR. Darrel Williams-probably wont be drafted is a 235+lb back with outstanding hands. Christian Locotoure is a beast DL wholl go late and led all SEC D lineman in tackles.

He's already a solid starter with an average pass rush now. PFF had him as the highest graded cornerback through the first half...

As he was among the most targeted, regardless of how much weight you put into PFF, all things being relative, he was getting the job done

You do realize Damian Swann was released in September 2017? All Jackson has done so far is let his hubris psych himself out at the combine...

Slow down there, State - Donte Jackson is not an improvement over what we have now. Now Clapp might be a good replacement for Kelemete...

There are no other LSU Tigers from this year's crop we'd want on this roster as their best years were at State or they're problem children..

I like Breaux. Bring him back.

At worst, he's solid depth.

Philly really opened my eyes to how important solid depth is at this level.

Big fan of Breaux. Love to see him back. FO should be glad to have such a willing talented selfless player. Screwed by medical team. Sign him to good big contract or I wouldn’t be upset if he sued.

Very happy for him still getting a chance to play! Nick Underhill says he couldn’t get cleared by other teams because of the spinal injury so that explains a little bit of why he wasn’t getting signed.
