why waste a pick, when he'll be around as an undrafted free agent

No way he goes undrafted. Bruce Irvin did the same thing but about 1000xs worse and went 15th overall. I realize he is a pass rusher, but don't tell me not one single team won't take a chance on him in maybe the 3-5 round.

Like I said earlier, he fits a need for the Saints. Could be a great nickel/safety type and could start taking a few PR duties as Sproles gets older

Not even sure he makes the draft. If he doesn't,..sure, let him have a tryout. I'd like see what he has on sharing the field with Sproles on returns.

More than safe to say his punt returning in the NFL probably wouldn't be as great, I dont think he is going to fool any veterans but,..i think he runs like a 4.3? so if he can move the ball and hang onto it, there is always that chance of him getting those extra 10+ yards than the other option would.

As far as defense, he couldn't hang with any of our guys right now. Lance Moore would smoke him 8/10. I'd hate to see him find himself thrown into a game somehow having to cover a guy like Calvin Johnson.

I think he has talent, but to say things like he is already better than any of our current secondary is silly. He played good against Georgia, but they really aren't shite compared to Green Bay.

worth a try out though.

EDIT:
and who cares if he smokes pot. Not like he's breaking down crack in his locker to shoot in his arms at halftime. People felt the same way about alcohol at one time, but now when grown men win a championship..they cover themselves and their locker room in it. When he is on a drug that can actually kill you or someone else, then there is real cause for concern. But if the motherfricker wants to relax and get away from the bullshite, he is a grown man and should have that option without it "ruining his life", rather than the alternative of drinking and/or taking pills.
