I really love both of these kids' futures as a Saint. Yes they are no Delvin Breaux but hey, we don't know what their future ceilings are just yet. Breaux was even a liability during his early playing time. Point being is both of these guys getting skins on the wall can prove far more beneficial long term in their Saint careers than short term liability's on the Defense. Why give reps to a washed out vet with no future. We have a young defense and part of young defense is gaining the experience to get better in the future. I think Crawley and Harris has a lot of tools to be excellent players in this league. Crawley had some damn good coverage on some of the plays he got burned on but Carr made a hell of a throw on that 2 pt conversion. Let's roll with them and hope to god maybe we can focus on pressure and blitzes than blaming the UDFA rookie CB playing damn well for us considering circumstances of his arrival.

Harris looks like he has potential. Crawley doesn't belong in the NFL.

They both got abused....very, very badly. Beaux showed flashes despite his hiccups right away. I've seen Harris make a play or two, but there's no doubt they're the weakest part of this team right now. And considering our Guard discussion this offseason that says something.

I like em. They run well and just need to learn timing and turning to the ball as they progress.

Its not their fault they have been thrown to the dogs as UDFA rookies who on most teams would be on the practice squad or at best the bench.

We're setting up for a good second half run when Rankins and Breaux return if we can just manage to be at .500 and not lose anymore to injury. All the PT they are getting will pay off.

People keep saying Harris got abused, I only saw him give up one pass play and it was tight coverage. Maybe another 1-2 I forgot about?

Remember, Armstead got schooled his first start. 3 sacks worth of schooling if memory serves me right. I'm not saying they will get that good, but they will get better.
