Cool Customer

BALTIMORE — One of the more important traits for a young quarterback to display is poise.

He can have all the arm strength, accuracy and vision, but it means nothing if he can’t stand in a pocket, keep his cool, and deliver a pass while under pressure. Saints rookie quarterback Garrett Grayson — at least during his first appearance against live action — appears to be as cool as they come.

His moment during Thursday night’s 30-27 exhibition loss to the Baltimore Ravens came in the fourth quarter when he hit Willie Snead down the sideline for a 23-yard gain.
