It all depends on the IF clause. "IF" the team keeps you around

Isaako Aaitui

SI Grade
1.92
Grading System

Position: DT
Class: 5Sr
School: UNLV
Conference: Mountain West
HT: 6-2.5
WT: 300
40 Time: 5.12
Biography: Three-year starter who finished with 27/5/1.5 as a senior after putting up junior totals of 31/2.5/.5. Career-best numbers of 32/7/2 came during his sophomore season.

Positives: "Big-bodied interior lineman who flashes skill but shows minimal consistency. Quick off the snap, fights throughout the action, and is tough to move off the point. Built low to the ground and keeps his feet moving up the field. Changes direction well."

Negatives: "Gets tall as the play proceeds, makes himself an easy target, and can be controlled by a single blocker. Must improve the use of his hands. Marginal instincts and slow locating the ball. Minimally productive in college."

Analysis: Aaitui looked like a top prospect in the making after sophomore season but never improved his game. He has the skills necessary to be used on the inside of a four-man line but must take every aspect of his game to another level.

Projection: FA

first practice with the Jets, Aaitui tore his ACL and MCL. sideline for the year

Dolphins do a pretty good job coaching up DL so lets see what we got. he got a full year and a half of rehab by being on PS. so he should be ready to go

Re: Saints sign DT Isaako Aaitui

Sure wish we'd had draft Ogletree - with the beef up front and Ogletree anchoring the linebackers ...

No Run Success...

No Screen Success...

No Middle Pass Success...

But we'll trust Kenny Vaccaro is the goods...
