Funny thing is he lists at 6’ 7” and 265. Turner lists 6’ 6” 269. He doesn’t sound any more massive than the guy the Saints chose.

Simms and Florio are hacks. Perhaps the Saints didn't like Rousseau's character, or his attitude, or his style of play, or the way he parted his hair. They clearly put time and thought into Turner and didn't want to take the chance that he wouldn't be there at pick 60. That's what I love about how the Saints draft. They go get who they want and don't listen to the meaningless outside noise.
