NFL Draft 2013: Saints Visit With Sanders Commings at Georgia Pro Day

A player that was reported as being scouted by the Saints at UGA's Pro Day according to WalterFootball.com is cornerback Sanders Commings. Though not a name that some might expect to be highlighted alongside Jones, linebacker Alec Ogletree, and safety Bacarri Rambo, Commings did just that for the Saints.

The one thing that stands out for Commings is his size. At 6'2" and 216 lbs., he still managed to run a 4.41 40 yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine allowing him to keep up with receivers but has the ability to be physical with them as well. Commings registered eight interceptions and 14 pass break ups while at Georgia.

Yes..this kind of signifies the boundary/field corner coverage we'll be running. It also continues to address the need to get bigger @ Corner.

Sanders Cummings if we get him under Nnamdi for a year or 2 could be awesome. I like him as a prospect and looked him up not to long ago. Would be happy to nab him in the 4th or 5th.

I've always been a big fan of Sanders watching Georgia games

Not according to Walterfootball, just Commings and Jarvis Jones is listed as a private meeting... :scratch:

Commings is the player that impressed me the most watching the Bulldogs defense. My biggest concern on him was speed, not because he looked slow on tape but because of his size but he sure answered that question at the combine. Those types of measurements are near Patrick Peterson.

Good point. Commings had the smaller side of the field most plays for the Dawgs, but this means he was almost always on the island by himself. He acquitted himself nicely there. His stats, much like the rest of the UGA defense this side of Jarvis, do not really match his physical talents, so I wonder where that disconnect is. But he is a worthwhile prospect to consider, even if I am a tad bit on the homer side.

How fluid is he? I know he has great straight line speed but how quick is he able to turn out of his backpedal and change direction?
