I'm not sure if this came up earlier in the board (nor am I suggesting the Saints should do this), but I just wanna hear some feedback on that suggestion*.
I can't decide if it's a good idea, total crap or an elaborate internet hoax intended to goad a trusting hawaiian into sexting an imaginary human...
I've read the biggest concern about him is whether or not he has NFL speed at the line backer position. I would think that if his speed is a concern at linebacker, that would most likely rule out any chance of him playing safety in the NFL.

After the Bama game I'm sure a few questions arose about his physicality as well. Our back-up RB's were leaving cleat marks on his chest.

Sounds like a slower Courtney Watson to me.

New Orleans Saints chat up a wide receiver prior to Senior Bowl

GENE HIGGINBOTHAM
8 hours ago
With the Senior Bowl less than a week away, NFL teams are getting to know some potential prospects that could fall to them in either the upcoming NFL Draft or if they fly under the radar, could be snagged as an undrafted free agent.
Shane Hallam who is a draft analyst for draftcountdown.com, tweeted a picture yesterday of a scout for the New Orleans Saints sitting and talking with University of Georgia wide receiver Tavarres King.
For fans scratching the heads or thinking that the Saints need to be talking with a defensive player instead, just relax. The scouts on any NFL team wouldn’t be doing their job if they weren’t looking at all the merchandise.
King at 6’1 and 200 pounds was pretty productive with his time as a Bulldog. For his college career he had 136 receptions for 2,602 yards and 21 touchdowns. His senior year was the most impressive with 42 receptions for 950 yards, averaging 22.5 yards per reception, and 9 touchdowns.
On CBSSports.com and NFLDraftScout.com, King is currently projected as a 5th found pick in the upcoming draft which is where the Saints excel at in finding offensive hidden gems.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

Nice find on Tavarres King; another interesting article on him...

Best thing about him is a sense of winning culture...

Re: 2013 NFL Draft - Saints Big Board

ok i am done wondering and looking in round 1 and maybe 2

If the saints can pull it off i want these two for the defense. Trade players picks whatever

Alex Oakfor, DE Texas
HEIGHT 6045 WEIGHT 261
HAND 900 ARM 3318 WING 7978

Kawann Short DT Purdue
HEIGHT 6032 WEIGHT 308
HAND 948 ARM 3368 WING 8238

Matching them up with what the saints have already would make the DL one of the most physical and quickest DL we have seen in years

still in the mix

Ezekiel Ansah DE B.Y.U.
HEIGHT 6052 WEIGHT 270
HAND 1000 ARM 3458 WING 8228

He is my favorite (so far) of the "upside" players in the draft. we all know i am not a real fan of upside in round 1 but i keep coming back to him


other i am looking closer at

Kevin Reddick WLB North Carolina
HEIGHT 6014 WEIGHT 246
HAND 938 ARM 3158 WING 7558


Zavier Gooden WLB Missouri
HEIGHT 6014 WEIGHT 233
HAND 1000 ARM 3100 WING 7628

waiting on 40 times and bench numbers

Been watching the Senior Bowl practices the last couple of days and this kid looks amazing!

Mayock has had nothing but great things to say about the kid...

Not sure where he is projected at though
