No worries. He should be broken in by now. Age and treachery overcome youth and endurance every time!

The argument against would be drafting a guy you'll have on the team for what, one contract?

Common belief is most College FB players take 2-3 seasons to acclimate to the NFL. Ok, then your draft pick is peaking at 27-28 vs 24-25.

Brian Breese will be 23 in October. I'd look for another younger player like him.

Re: Official 2024 Saints Draft Discussion

I wonder if the talent is really up on offense and down on defense in this draft or if because the past season was anomalously down offensively across most of the league, too many teams see offense as their greatest need. If everyone is drafting offense, that becomes an argument to draft defense. If offense being down across the league is a long term trend, maybe our receivers are better than we think and our corners are worse than we think, and likewise our offensive line is better than we think and our defensive line is worse than we think, because lower offensive success and higher defensive success is the new normal.
