He was a top 3 S in the league before he came to the Saints so at the time it wasn't a bad signing. The Saints have a way of fricking up any defensive talent when you're almost devoid of it on defense as it is. When you only have a couple guys who can play and then the rest of your starters/depth shouldn't be starting on an NFL team, it makes everyone around them look bad. It's not just Byrd but our scheme is broke. A guy like Byrd is not even used to his strengths like he was in Buffalo. Not sure it would matter but it certainly wouldn't hurt.
while in part true, he also had some hip and foot issues in buff, and a bit of a reputation for being soft around the front office there. he didnt miss many starts til the foot issues/contract dispute but was also off the field a lot during games through his career.
hes still a very good player when healthy and in a position to succeed --- but he wasnt a slam dunk.

According to PFF, he had a ridiculously high snap % outside of the contract dispute year

He's not even a layup at this point
