Zack Baun: Top Graded LB / DPOY cand. [Why Baun Isn’t Still a Saint Thread]

Bayouboy said

Baun is drafted by your team. Dude is in your facility every day, but primarily plays special teams. Can not crack the starting lineup. Contract is due, you try to resign him, but he wants more playing time. Ends up with another team and is lighting the league on fire.......in consideration for DPOY.

Huh? Happens all the time, right?

Even when the scouts hit, the Saints miss. Who Dat!!!

I think it was the scheme. Allen had a scheme he basically played a 2 LB system and Baun had no where to shine in scheme DA ran. Also I think we get so focus on external events that we never know Baun might stepped his game up, knowing he had a great opportunity. I'm personally happy seeing him succeed he always seem to have a great attitude and took advantage of his limited opportunities here
