In the NFL, you must earn respect. New Orleans Saints rookie defensive lineman Bryan Bresee is already doing that in a major way. Carl Granderson is as well, and fans are noticing.
On former Saints wide receiver Lance Moore's show , Cameron Jordan made it clear that he is a big believer in Bresee already, too. He clearly thinks that he can be a star at the NFL level.
Jordan also gives respect to veteran DE Carl Granderson. His praise of Granderson came with a mention of former Saints DL Marcus Davenport, who never produced the way that Granderson has in his past season and a half of play.
The veteran even mentioned that teams should start double teaming Granderson instead of himself, so he can have some more production.
Jordan's pass rush production has not been super impressive so far this season, but he started out slow in that department last season, too. The sacks will come for him.
So far, Granderson is getting to the QB as consistently as some of the league's best. Bresee is considered 'next up' in a line of interior players that could use some spark in the coming seasons.
