Still liking
Round 5? D.J. Reader DT/OG Clemson 6021 325 5.04 - I see a Sr who missed his Jr for personal issues and tons of untapped potential.

Warming up to
Round 4? Charles Tapper, EDGE/DL, Oklahoma 6021 282 4.87
smart and dependable, with above average athleticism. Not edge burner but collapse, maintains gap integrity and understands the importance of setting an edge. Flexibility for a DL rotation is huge in a 43.

a couple of new names to throw out there 7/UDFA types

Terrell Lathan DE TCU 6035 280 4.82- want to talk wing span? I really just started digging into him. Not a sack master but he knows containment and setting the edge

Peter Mortell P Minnesota 6012 195 4.92 - Pulling a homer here.
74 punts- 2 TB-30 inside 20- 17 fair caught. overall average - 43.4 ypp.
Nothing phases him gets the kick of under rush pressure. The kid can do it all manipulate distance, direction & spin on punts. He may be an part of the answer for our cap issues. Ok JP you got me looking at Punters.

Joshua Perkins TE/HB Washington 6031 226 4.68 - athleticism sure, soft hands too, but to small for TE and not fast enough for WR needs a niches on special teams

Derek Watt Wisconsin FB 6017 234 4.67

We may not have AJ but his bother has the skill set as FB Payton always seems to like, Mr Do Everything. He is a freaking Swiss Army Knife FB/RB/HB/TE Special teams you name it. jack-*of*-all*-trades player, but master of none. enough catch phrases the kid is simply a football player that will do anything to get on the field.

Plenty of good guards that you don't have to reach with a first or second round pick...

2016 Game Rosters : The Game : Senior Bowl

OG Christian Westerman, Arizona St; Height: 6' 4"; Weight: 300 lbs.; Round 3 Target

OG Joe Dahl, Washington St; Height: 6' 5"; Weight: 310 lbs.; Round 4Target*

OG Connor McGovern, Mizzou; Height: 6' 4"; Weight: 300 lbs.; Round 4 Target

*Currently, Saints have no Round 6 pick...

Trust me when I say this, you don't want Zack Sanchez of Oklahoma. I'm proud to say I'm a Sooner but he's not NFL ready. Gives up too many big plays.
