Re: Saints rookie film review: Doubting linebacker Stephone Anthony's ability? He has invaluable traits, could play Week 1
 

most of us had a gut feeling he would not make it to R2 12

R2 11 Texans (from Browns) - Benardrick McKinney

R2 13 Vikings - Eric Kendricks

R2 16 Chargers Denzel Perryman,

that was all the proof i needed. looks like the gamble may just have been correct. because the run on ILB was right there in the middle of round 2. next one was not till the end of third

R3 35 Bengals (compensatory selection) Paul Dawson

i wonder if that Texas from Cleveland trade at 12 did not happen if the saints would have drafted McKinney. draft mysteries.

Gotta say Beasley looks damn good in those highlights too. That guy is FAST.

I think they wanted Shelton.... as in a Shelton/KIkuhua pairing... once that didnt happen Peat was the next name on their board...

He is a 1st round draft pick, he BETTER see the field come week 1

Vic B official combine time was 4.53.
Our guy clocked in at 4.56.

I kept ranting pre draft that our scouts need to find our "Luke Keichly" in this years draft. I honestly think Anthony will be the real deal at the next level for the Black and Gold :bng:.

He will start week one. If not, the pick was a mistake.

If he has the NFL level instincts we may have landed a bigger and faster version of NaVorro Bowman

Yeah, I own every style of Black and Gold goggles made, but I really think this guy has the potential to be the best Saints LB since the DP. I'm thinking a bigger more aggressive Jonathan Vilma, with virtually the same speed and position acumen.
