Who knows. I just hope this guy doesn't come in and make waves...

He’s significantly better than both Crawley and P.J. Williams. There’s no doubt about that.

Crawley has been burned 1 outof every 10.75 snaps with 3 pass defenses

Apple has been burned 1 out of every 14 snaps with 5 pass defenses and 1 Forced Fumble...

So yes an upgrade!

+1 SF.

The locker room is strong in NO, mentally focused men and coaches. Aaron Glenn will get the most out of Eli. I'm certain he will.

Just 2 short seasons ago, he was a top 10 pick. I'm looking at the upcoming schedule and all I see are potent air attacks with major WR threats. IMO we just signed a guy who will minimize all of those "late td bombs" that we are becoming too used to with Ken Crawley.

Immature? Surely but I'm confident he'll grow up in New Orleans on and off the field. At the end of the day, we all want players that will give us the best chance to win.

Major upside here & he's damn near the same age as Lattimore.

Crawley has 75 penalty yards this season; Apple has 5...

New Orleans Saints acquire CB Eli Apple in trade with New York Giants

6’1.

4.4

We haven’t ever had two cornerbacks with this combination of size and speed before. I really wanted Patrick Peterson like everybody else, but this is a huge upgrade. We can relegate P.J. Williams to the slot only and really start a path to the Super Bowl.

I have mixed feelings about trading draft picks away because Jeff Ireland can give us good players in the draft and our free agency moves have been hit and miss in the off season.

Yeah. More and more our 2019 is looking like it is going to be a bit of a concern and quite boring. We might only have 1-3 picks in the entire draft. Better hope it's a bad crop of players next year.
