Actually Clowney abused him pretty good.

Re: Bye week draft thoughts

dreams are hard to watch coming of the board

C.J. Mosley, OLB/ILB, Alabama - perfect fit for the defense. ILB/OLB that excels at pass defense. yep ILB first in my book

Cyril Richardson, ROT/G, Baylor - just what the dr orders for Ingram and saints running game. Unless he is really slow out of the blocks i can see no reason he can not man the ROT position

Alas they will be gone. so i am torn right now on these 5 at the mid season mark. Nice thing about pick so low in the draft area of needs seem to be working out as BPA

- Bishop Sankey, RB, Washington Huskies
Height: 5094. Weight: 203
Projected 40 Time: 4.49

Catch Phrases: speedy, shifty, good size, excellent body control, balance, through-hole vision, Good hands out of the backfield, too. All have tried to stop him and all have failed

But it would be the end of Ingram and the saints. If so i hope he ends up in a power running game were he belongs and can flourish.

- Kyle Van Noy, OLB, BYU
Height: 6-3. Weight: 235.
Projected 40 Time: 4.65

He is exactly what the Saints OLB core needs. He is a solid blitzer. Solid at the point of attack. BUT he excels in pass defense. A BIG VOID IN THE SAINTS DEFENSE. LB that can cover. Only wish can he slide inside?

- James Hurst, LOT, North Carolina

Height: 6-7. Weight: 310.
Projected 40 Time: 5.25.

book end LT? why not. he may not look pretty but he has been getting the job done the past two years in the SEC.

- Aaron Colvin, CB, Oklahoma
Height: 6-0. Weight: 181.
Projected 40 Time: 4.48

He is solid and has done nothing but made positive moves in his draft value all year. He may not be flashy but he is looking to be one of the better all round CB in the draft

- Ed Reynolds, FS/SS Stanford

Height: 6-2 Weight: 206
Projected 40 Time: 4.54

Ball hawking is not an issue here neither is his smarts. the issue is is tackling. he has shown improvement so i have keep him on the list. I just can not take him off my short list.

Player that scares me the most is

Khalil Mack, OLB, Buffalo
Height: 6-3. Weight: 245.
Projected 40 Time: 4.69

he did great in the preseason warm games this year but really is he first round material? Is he worth the risk? this years early wild card Cinderella story


Shut down CB? Flashy BUT

Loucheiz Purifoy*, CB, Florida
Height: 6-1. Weight: 189.
Projected 40 Time: 4.42

Talent and skills set are there but after the LSU game I have serious issues with him. Or was the WR from LSU that good? i am leaning to a big yes on the LSU wide outs

Bradley Roby*, CB, Ohio State
Height: 5-11. Weight: 190.
Projected 40 Time: 4.46

Play has been solid for the most part but a few games leave me wondering

Yes sir Hagan714 I agree...LSU WR's are that good. Odell B and Landry are probably the best 1,2 tandem in the country ... they will be off the board early come draft day.

question is will they come out? I really think draft grades are going to be key. this year looks good for for the glamor boys QBs in the first.

WR are pretty deep also. it will be interesting to see what they do

Re: Bye week draft thoughts

Regarding the LSU WR early entry into the draft question: Will they risk their performances from this year to play with ANOTHER quarterback next year as Zach Mettenberger is a senior, guaranteeing a different quarterback next season?!?
