Usama Young - 5111, 196, 4.39, Kent St.
All Mac second team, Young's Pro Day:
40 in 4.39 and 4.40 seconds. He also notched a 43-inch vertical, a 10-foot-11 broad, a 4.31 short shuttle, a 6.65 three-cone drill and 15 bench presses.

the nfl site has a good write up on him. okay time to scratch our heads again like last year

I love how espn has done a video rundown on every player drafted in the 3rd eound EXCEPT the Saints player. All we get is a 30 second discussion.

Like you guys said, Payton knows what he is doing. It's weird thinking that we have so much faith in the FO and CS.
