ERIC EDHOLM: South Carolina's Jaycee Horn is the son of former Saints' wide receiver, Joe Horn, but this time the kid went on the other side of the ball. He's a quarterback.

Now, his production is coming along a little bit slowly, and he's a little too grabby downfield in his coverage. But he covered everybody, speedy wide receivers, talented tight ends, you name it. He reminds us a little bit of Xavier Rhodes of the Colts.
