If competing with the gi on, Judo is incredibly effective for one that has the patience to develop their throws. In BJJ competition, I admit that I tend to lean toward the throws that don't expose the back as readily. For those instances, I've worked alot on my De Ashi Harai (foot sweep).
For throws that DO momentarily expose the back, I tend to use different footwork. I've been known to use a Seao Nage to throw a foe every now and then, but instead of "stepping" into the throw (which give plenty of time to latch onto my back and drag me down), I use a "jump-switch" footwork for faster action.
I know Judo exposes the back on many of the throws, but let's face it.....giving your back in Judo isn't as consequential as in BJJ. Hell, you give your back in Judo and less than 30 seconds later, the ref is standing you up again. Give yourself time to try the Judo throws in practice and you'll eventually adjust your game to not give up your back. Different environment in the BJJ game, but you CAN adjust your game accordingly.
