Looks good.

Yeah, he is among the tall DTs I'd like for the Saints to take a close look at.

Some mock drafts have him going fairly high, but then others have him going in the low rounds, so he might be a steal maybe with the other 6th round pick.

Why did he transfer from LSU

|Mitch| · 02-22-2012, 03:30 PM

The NCAA revoked his college eligibility in a ruling of LSU recruitment of him...

I have no idea what the issue with the recruiting was however;

The Regina Rams footage up above is from Canada...

It wouldn't hurt to look at him but playing Canadian football teams and playing college powerhouse teams over here are 2 different animals. A possible, maybe??

The Regina Rams are a Canadian college football team, but seeing as he was the 20th ranked junior college prosepect, kid has to have talent...

I'll forward this to Sean. Although he probably already has it.
