Still gelling with the rest Evans - Dying faster than a vampire in the desert sunlight Strief - Below average, but could pick it up. Peat - Everyone knew he wouldn't break the starting line-up until late in the season or next year. Progressing as expected. Kelemete - He's about average, but has played better than Evans has this year |

G was on my priority list for the draft and thought Strief had at least this year in him I will admit. I'm not a coach but I do have a set of decent eyes to see where we could upgrade but for some reason these high profile, well paid people that put this team can't see an inch in front of them at times.

Re: 2015 Saints Offensive Line - First Quarter Season Assessment
Stealing Danos set up here My humble opinion...
Armstead - He is way ahead of the curve for a small school prospect. Lelito - Jury is out and Hung. The kid still can not handle a stunt Unger - Trying to minimizing the damage his two bookends are causing Kelemete - Jury is out and Hung. The kid still can not handle a stunt Strief - Age is catching up with swing OT. Saints waited a least two years to long to draft and groom a replacement. Peat - well we bit the bullet and we have to live with it. IMO we could have traded down a bit and still got him. no way was he getting past that group atop the 20s with Carolina leading the way. Lets face it the OL has always had a position or two the saints roll the dice on. They just waited a bit to long to address age. waiting to the last minute is never wise. |
