He's too tall.

I hope it works out. If you can paly they will find you. And he can play.

Can't fine a BC WR with that kind of speed. Has to be bad info.

Think it's Alex Amidon. 5'11", 4.40 low. Projected as the 16th WR. Could use him in KR /gunner.

Just watched some tape on him and i've gotta say i'm impressed

Great accuracy
Notices the blitz and gets rid of the ball to relevant route
Very good arm strength
Looks like he can make every throw all over the field
Quick release once he's taken the snap

Pedestrian numbers for a typically disappointing Tulane Squad this past season- 9GS, 2771 PaYd, PaCp 62.2, 19 PaTD, 11 Int; so what's the big deal? He shows up at the Texas v. The World Game and surrounded with comparable talent to the other signal callers he blows it outta there with Scouts scrambling moving this All-Academic Signal Caller up draft boards...

Why the Saints Will Draft Him? Curtis Johnson, former Saints WR Coach, is the new Tulane Head Coach and will give Sean Payton a no-nonsense, first-hand scouting report that will sneak the Saints an excellent prospect at QB...

Well, maybe Saints interests in not a smoke screen, Saints will take him with their last pick...

And Curtis Johnson bringing him up in a Saints-style system won't hurt either...

I would spend a 5th, 6th, or 7th on this qb. I got a good feeling about him!! Can he get use to winning without it going to his head would be my only question.

I haven't seen anything to suggest that...

so i just go with the flow at this position.

there are some pretty good players in the back end of the draft and UDFA this year. actually probably the strongest i have seen in years. wish i could say that about round 1

I would not mind the saints getting a boat load of picks in rounds 6 and 7 thrown in if they trade down. there is a QB in there somewhere

the wave maybe the man
