Limited snaps don't paint a complete picture. I have high hopes for him (not so much for galette) but he's not a producer. We don't have one reliable pass rusher
Obviously multiple teams thought Jones wasn't a reliable pass rusher at the next level. The Saints can still add to that position later in the draft.
Jones was never going to be the pick at 15.

No one is saying that but is hilarious that guys that only pull for the Saints think that makes them better judges of NFL talent. Keep hatin on LSU it's what you guys do best.

Sorry but I wholeheartedly disagree. Steelers ran to the podium to take Jones.
Pass rusher is not a position you can just say, oh hey let me grab one in the later rounds and I'll be good. You know what position you could do that for? Safety

vaccaro is a better fit, I'm really happy with this pick.
Reid is a beast and the 49'rs wanted a violent run stopper.
everybody wins

Why not? There's multiple guys in the NFL who had 10+ sacks last year that were drafted 3rd round or later. Jones isn't a can't miss player, he's slow and was pretty bad against the run.

And he has a deteriorating spine

Higher than 15th. With the majority having much better measurable than Jones.

If you believe shite on the rant I got diamond mines in Port Sulphur I wanna sell you. Eric Reid is a solid football player and has proven it at LSU. What idiots say don't matter. The kid pressed to hard last season tryin to become what Tyrann Mathieu was to LSU and his play suffered because of it. San Francisco has a solid player and they know it.

i didn't realize the 49ers picked before the saints

I remember the rant echoing that Reid needed another year to work on his weaknesses.

I don't need a link to show the only other team that wanted to go safety were the Ravens (after the 49ers and Saints) and supposedly the Cowboys and Steelers wanted Vacarro as well. But Reid went played for LSU and therefore is better. Saints Rant logic.

He can say that all he wants, but no one believes him but butthurt Jones fans and 49ers fans.

What about Steelers front office? They had Vaccaro ranked as the #1 safety.
