This guy is the type of nut we need however I heard the announcers mentioning that he intends to stay at Baylor for one more season

Edit: I gotcha Mitch....I'm in speed reading mode. My fault.

He can bring it coming off the edge.

That's what I'm saying, not this years draft but the next one...

Im glad he went back to school. He's still a project, but can get alot better. He's all top heavy though, His legs are tyson chandler scrawny. Can see him getting knocked out of plays in the league, but thats why the decision to head back to Baylor is so good.

Now if you want a monster that has all the size a team wants & thick all around, look no further than Oregon's Arik Armstead! True Beast(6'8, 300)

IF he can put it all together he'll be another Calais Campbell. Watched him bull rush FSU a couple of times. His size & ceiling alone have him as a potential 1st rounder this year, but still needs to develop & show consistency. Im intrigued by his potential.

So its back to unpredictability in terms of busts vs.immediate results.

The bowl games said Meyer is a difference maker and was likely the reason more than Tebow why UF won those two titles.

Re: Bowl Games To Keep An Eye On

they way things are looking OT is going to be good this year and at 13 OT should be one of the least riskiest picks the saints could make. dare i say the year of the OT. we need a RT that can flip if needed to LT or one that can slide inside to OG. keep Stinch as the main back up at OT

Or better yet get both with two picks. A RT to slide inside to OG get some cap space and a start on at RT. first two picks OL baby. heck go for broke and grab a OC/OG in the draft and let Lelito and him slug it out for OC and loser battles for the next OG slot. there you go. first 3 picks OL and we are set for cap moves this year and next. if the football gods play along with the idea

boy would that drive saints nation crazy. we always think we are just one glamor pick away from getting another super bowl ring. lmao those days are done. age and poor player management have seen to that.

Re: Bowl Games To Keep An Eye On

Depends who is the board though,who would you take at 13 because surely it will be a reach for some and most others wont get back to us in the second.

Re: Bowl Games To Keep An Eye On

I'd rather the Saints address the OL in the 2nd and 3rd preferably a guard and center and use the 13th pick on a playmaking defender like Shaq Thompson. It's all going to depend on what happens leading up to the draft.

Yesir. Agreed. Already wrote in another thread several days back that OT was deep this year along with RB & pass rushers. I can possibly see about 6 or 7 OT's with a 1st round grade on em. Off the top: Scherff, Peat, Stanley, Ogbuehi, Collins, Clemmings, Sambrailo.
A certain team in the playoffs isnt looking to bad drafting Oline 3 years in a row. Hate to even refer to them lol.
