40 yd dash times - Low: 4.44"; Avg: 4.54"; High: 4.65"
Source: NFL Draft Scout

Local news source reports him as 6' 4", 238lbs...

Source: Shepherd

So it'll be interesting to see what he measures and shows at the Combine...

have to keep an eye out for the tape on the kid.

I just want to tell y'all how much I love your contributions and the great work you both do scouting these players every year. I really enjoy the insight and all of the information. Keep it up fellas!
Love draft time - it's great conversing with Saints fans on players; sometimes you get a different take on a player that didn't occur before - so it's all good...:bng:

NFL Draft 2014: Saints Should Take Jarvis Landry in Second Round NFL Draft 2014: Saints Should Take Jarvis Landry in Second Round - Canal Street Chronicles

Do we take him and let Moore go? Or do we just give Drew another weapon and make it up financially somewhere else? Toon hasn't impressed me any and Morgan will probably be resigned but Landry would give Drew a nice slot option will good hands. He doesn't drop many passes and he doesn't run from contact, just what we need.

i would love to see Jarvis in B&G. solid all round wr that maybe the most pro ready WR in the draft. whats not to like.

let moore go? drew has his quirks and moore is one of them. writing is on the wall with all the wr but moore would be a tough call.

trade back and stay in the top of round 2 and get a 3 rd i would be giddy.

keep adding a few along the way and kick in in a player or two to free up more cap space to boot.

i really think the saints can have a couple starter caliber players by mid season and seriously inject talent and youth across the board in this draft.

lets not forget it would do wonders for the cap.

we are solid enough as a team to pull this off and improve the team from day 1 of the 2014 season

Landry is a younger version of Moore ... great hands, better speed, solid route running and will go across the middle to make the tough catch.

Not so sure he is in our sights, but he will be a solid contributor wherever he lands.

I think the lack of physicality has to do with his small frame. But if not, that is coachable. I do believe his frame is good enough to add weight without losing speed and athleticism though.

Is that his first injury, or does he have a history of them? If it's only his first one that doesn't scare me off much.
