Delvin Breaux Taking Free Agent Visits, But He Admits He Wants To Be Home

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; 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. ...

Re: Delvin Breaux Taking Free Agent Visits, But He Admits He Wants To Be Home

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..

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Good call on drafting Will Clapp.

Champ Bailey 2.0. If he could play he'd be on the team.
