But if you look at what they've signed, used on the inside, even Center, rarely did they deploy guys 6' 3" at C or even below 6' 5" with Jahri Evans being the exception...
I can sort of understand the thinking, long arms, bigger frame, of course it will give mor reach and range. Just that it usually comes at the expense of push and drive.

Jahri was the best of the bunch... IMHO he is the second best lineman we've had after Roaf.

Don't see how we can't come away without a RB in this draft...

That run that Ramczyk had a couple of seasons ago, not allowing a sack and just two pressures against as many as seven HOF DEs was pretty impressive and under appreciated...

Dylan Parham - G
Memphis

Mid-round grades ... good strength, RPO heavy, mobile & quick for a man over 300 lbs. Could become a solid backup - Ruiz needs to be pushed for a job.

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting

Mel Kiper’s newest mock draft has the Saints trading up four spots for WR Garrett Wilson. Here’s his reasoning:

There are many questions around the post-Sean Payton era for the Saints, but it's clear that the team has to add more weapons around whomever plays quarterback in 2022. Michael Thomas should be back after missing all of last season, and he could use a wideout to take some pressure off him. Wilson has the versatility to play in the slot or outside, and he can pile on yards after the catch. He had 113 catches and 18 touchdowns for the Buckeyes over the past two seasons.
If the Saints keep the No. 18 pick, offensive tackle could be in play, especially if Trevor Penning is available. Quarterback Malik Willis could be an option, too, but the Saints are more ready to try to win in 2022, and I think Willis needs a little more seasoning before he's thrown into the fire in the NFL.

"When you get into one of these groups, there's only a couple of ways you can get out. One, is death; the other, is mental institutions."

Tyler Allgeier - RB BYU

Reminds me of Clyde Edwards- H of the Chiefs with slightly more quickness.

Nope. Need an unencumbered rookie season for maximum success...
