Projected Round (2014): 2-3. 5/5/14:

Jean-Baptiste fits the mold of the big corners who are becoming the rage in the NFL. He used the Senior Bowl to answer some questions since many wondered if Jean-Baptiste had the movement skills to stay cornerback or would he have to be moved to safety. Jean-Baptiste proved in Mobile that he does; he showed the potential to be more than a press-man cover. Jean-Baptiste illustrated the quickness and agility to play some off-man and zone coverage at the Senior Bowl. He was solid at the Combine. If Jean-Baptiste can't stay at corner in the NFL, he could be moved to safety.

Jean-Baptiste had four interceptions with 12 passes batted and 41 tackles in 2013. His performance at the Senior Bowl shows that he is worthy of second-day consideration.

Personal: Graduated with a bachelor's degree in criminology and criminal justice.

Son of Pierre and Yanick Jean-Baptiste. Stanely Jean-Baptiste has participated in charity work.

The article said Rob Ryan wanted to use this year to get him acclimated, and it seems like that's what we're doing. Sure. I'd like to see him play, but whatever. He can play next year. I hope he starts next year. Let's give it time and see what develops.

very rarely does a few days of practice at the Senior Bowl mean anything.

hell... I remember when Sedrick Ellis dominated that week and help bolster his draft status which was already pretty high.

I wonder why Walter Football said those things because I don't remember Jean Baptiste turning that many heads that week. I'm not saying he didn't do well but Walter makes it some routine report. He doesn't give you any specific examples of SJB's week... just kind of some half arse feedback.

i've said it before and I'll say it again. Why in the hell would you use a 2nd round pick on a guy who you view as a project player?

Lunacy!!!!!!!!

I sure as hell hope he at least comes on at some point and contributes.

it was a pretty weird draft by us if you think about it.

1st round- trade up for a WR in a class when it is deep at the position.

2nd round- draft a guy you view as a "project player"

I don't know man... I hope everything works out though.
