Was looking at the R3 pick we got for Jammal Brown in the F***ing we took from the 'skins...
We gave 2005 R1 and 2006 R3 picks to move up three spots in the 2005 draft. Brown is now a Redskin...so essentially we gave up our 2005 R1.16, 2006 R3.66 for a 2011 R3.10 pick...W-T-F?!? What else did we give up? Not that I don't love Drew Brees, but Aaron Rodgers went to the Packers R1.24...d'uoh! We better damn well get some value back... |

Also Purdue DE Ryan Kerrigan had an article as well; he's another savvy Boilermaker as he's not tipping his hand...

From Nola.com
New Orleans Saints DE draft prospects at Senior Bowl: Pierre Allen, Nebraska ...Unlikely as a first-round pick, given his relative inexperience at the DE position. Had 3 1/2 sacks and a conference-best 13 quarterback hurries last season in the Big XII. "I've talked to just about everybody," he said, including the Saints... |

Mel Kiper says...
New Orleans Saints Record: 11-5 1/24 *Justin Houston, DE, Georgia An outside linebacker to some, I see Houston developing into a great edge-rusher as a 4-3 defensive end. The Saints need help at that spot and Houston is a guy who could pay big dividends into the second half of his rookie season as he grows into the role. With great length, quickness and pass-rushing instincts, he'll help the Saints get to opposing QBs without being forced to rely on the blitz. |

Kinda small but could probably still grow some, and still needs work, but a good prospect. Kinda sounds a lot like Junior Galette. |

Was reading ESPN and saw this guy's draft stock is rising. JT Thomas from West Virginia... could be a nice Shanle replacement:
http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/draft2011/notebook?page=draftbuzz0204 Up: West Virginia LB J.T Thomas -- He's coming off a good week of practice at the Texas vs. Nation All-Star Game, where Thomas showed natural instincts, easy lateral movement and good athleticism and range. He finds the ball quickly and is a solid open-field tackler and can contribute on third down with his ability to cover underneath zones and match up with backs and tight ends in man coverage. He lacks ideal size and can get engulfed at the point of attack at times, but Thomas looks like a good fit at weakside linebacker in a 4-3 scheme, where he could be protected and allowed to run to the ball. Overall, Thomas has moved himself from a fringe pick to a mid-round possibility. |
