His teammate Cornelius Washington looks like a freak. Wow. Give Washington Ogletree's senior production and you're talking about a first round pick easily.

So if he is a freak the question becomes why didn't he produce like one?

Well, there's this conspiracy theory floating around - in my head - according to which Ogletree is trying to tank his draft worth, so that the Saints can pick him up with their 3rd round pick.

Cornelius Washington - third-down specialist in college

Drive and heart to play is the big "?" on him. take a flier on him and see if you can jump start his desire would be the thing. the upside is there without a doubt. personal interviews are going to be key for him i would think

the kid blew every one away at the senior bowl too.

on last question could Georgia's coaching staff be to blame here? there are a lot ways to put a player in the dog house.

Or was it do to playing a variety of roles in Georgia's 3-4 defense

see what i mean ???????????????????? they need to be answered

I can't even try to answer that question. Athletically speaking, this kid should have dominated college football. For whatever reason, he didn't. His tools will make you drool... should be an interesting project for someone.

He actually did, when he was suspended from the team this year...

He just needs some Big Daddy Saints to tighten him up and get hims straight, that's all...

Reid from LSU?

[RaginCajun83]

Smash, I agree on Reid but he'll be gone way before the Saints 3rd round pick. Curse you damn dirty Roger, curse you

What are you referring to?

Jenkins' re-signing?

mea culpa...

First, Jenkins will have an 11mil cap hit next season...

Second, I know this will fire the Harper/Crimson Camp up, but Harper blows...and so does Harper's coverage and tackling - he's like a Corvette that runs outta gas trying to beat a Pacer in the quarter mile but, oh, he can win the light duty class in a tractor pull...

The sacks are fine but I would rather my DB be best at Passes Defensed, Interceptions, and Forced Fumble Jarring Hits...and be paid commensurate to what he brings the team...Harper at the least should be a salary dump...

...So that's why I say we need to add Safety Prospects soon...
