Datone Jones - I'm pretty big on dropping, and grabbing this guy.... sorta what we wanted from Greg Romeus.


Moore - I don't think he will be there when we pick

Jones - His medical scares me still

Cat, I'm in the Ogletree camp and I'm not liking any of these guys...

I haven't gotten over taking Jenkins over Clay Matthews!

[hagan714]

which slow defender do you take remember. Clay had more media doubters than Jenkins. IMO thats what the final deciding factor was. Till the combine and pro day beauty shows it was clay hands down.

Olga is a bit different he just aint so pretty off the field and the way the interviews are reported to have gone he was not any prettier. thats what worries me. only the clubs know

then again i am not sold on any of these guys that the predraft has us picking. we need a faller but i am not seeing that happen

At the Texas v. the World Game, many of the scouts present had to geaux and build scouting profiles on them...

Buddy that was there told me your "Tulane boy is gonna get alot of scouts fired for not having done there homework on this kid..."

He thinks he could geaux as high as early fourth round!

Actually, unless you went to games (wish Tulane would rebuild Tulane Stadium), everything here is LSU now...

But he's really starting to catch fire now...

Still up in the air here

Round 3
Wanted but gone
Barrett Jones C/G/OT Alabama
Kyle Long, OT/G, Oregon

10: 1.79
SS 20:4.91
3 Cone: 8.09
Vert: 29" 1/2
Broad: 8" 06"
Bench: 38
a mammoth 335 pound 3-4 nose tackle. a bit on the raw side, but plays with good leverage and power. lets be honest if Tampa and Panthers do address DT by this point he will not be on the board. But Bunk is signed for the next few years so we have time to develop.

Option
Robert Alford, CB, SE Lousiana:
Brian Schwenke, C, California
Markus Wheaton, WR, Oregon State
Kiko Alonso, ILB, Oregon

Bonehead Red Flag Special
Sam Montgomery, DE, LSU: quitting and betting

I love but Pass on Ryan Swope multi concussion history

Round 4

Annual medical flier

Chris Faulk, OT, LSU
Bench: 25
Faulk ranked among the top offensive tackles in the country. season-ending torn ACL suffered in practice following the 2012 season opener. required separate surgeries a month apart on his medial collateral ligament and anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. Orthopedic specialist Dr. James Andrews has given Faulk the "no red flags"
Dr. James “He’s the man.” Andrews
The patients list: Brett Favre, Charles Barkley, Jack Nicklaus, Donovan McNabb, Drew Brees, Dwyane Wade, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz just to name a few

Option
Cornelius Washington, DE/OLB Georgia
David Quessenberry, C/G/OT, San Jose State
Sanders Commings CB Georgia
Reid Fragel OT Ohio St
Dion Sims, TE Michigan State

Round 5

Ty Powell OLB/DE Harding
Height: 6021
Weight: 249
Arm Length: 32.48
Hand Size: 9 3/4
40 time: 4.64
20 split
10 split 1.59
SS 20 4.40
3 Cone: 6.98
Vert: 37.0
Broad: 122
Bench: 28

Powell has played defensive end, safety and now linebacker that versatility works well in a 3-4 defense. He has exceptional ball skills. A high motor player that shows excellent football IQ. Big gamble with a very high reward possible.

Option
Michael Williams, TE/OT, Alabama
Corey Fuller, WR Virgina Tech
William Gholston DE Michigan State
Aaron Mellette WR Elon

Victor Butler signing would change this pick

Annual medical flier
Brennan Williams, OT, North Carolina
Starting potential at right tackle could be a great value pick

Round 6
still up in the air on this one too
Man this and round 7 are loaded with solid depth players. just to name a few.

Kwame Geathers DE/NT Georgia
Manase Foketi OT West Texas A&M
T.J. Barnes, NT, Georgia Tech
Ricky Wagner ROT Wisconsin
A.J. Klein, ILB, Iowa State
Brandon Moore, DT, Texas
Josh Boyd, DT, Mississippi St.
Josh Boyd QB Duke
Ryan Griffin QB Tulane
Cooper Taylor - SS/OLB - Richmond
Nathan Stanley, QB, Southeastern Louisiana
Rod Sweeting, CB, Georgia Tech

If the Saints do trade down getting multi picks in 5 and 6 as part of the package seems to be a smart move at this time
