Curious to see them in the all-star bowl games; but they've only gotten better, especially since the LSU game...

Re: 2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............

A'Shawn Robinson? he is looking to be a solid option as the saints win there way out of the top 10.

Of all the DL in this draft, he is the one that you know what you are drafting and there is not any hype in his game or ranking. So i officially will say this about Roberson

Robinson actually maybe the safest pick in the first round of the draft.


I compare Robinson with Kawann Short of the Panthers.

If the saints draft, say Austin Johnson Penn St. in the second, who i compare to a poor mans Star Lotulelei issues up front may become a mute issue.

The saints DT/NT rotation would have a chance to become the strongest position on the defense and have a rotation that could rival most teams in the NFL. Elite might be a safe word to use. If the saints go with a 43 defense.

John Jenkins while showing flashes has proven not to be the answer as a starter but can fill the roll as second player off the bench along with Austin Johnson as an active rotation. 50/50 playing time kind of rotation. Practice out of the Ravens playbook till the hotter hand shows itself. Neither can play the time Star Lotulelei does. But the rotation could equal his production IMO

Tyeler Davison rotating with Robinson and maybe Kaleb Eulls who has shown enough to keep around and keep training the kid up as your flex DE/DT player on the depth chart.

A'Shawn Robinson DT
Austin Johnson NT
John Jenkins NT
Tyeler Davison DT
Kaleb Eulls DT/DE

not a bad way to start the 2016 season.

Like him too. He could be a difference maker at the next level ... he could cover the likes of Austin Jenkins or all world Greg Olsen (we know all too well) but as others have stated, "F/A for cost friendly players - fill our needs there".

When the draft rolls around, take the best player available. If it's Treadwell, Hargreaves, Jack etc ... I'd be cool with that .

We slept on Marcus Peters for off the field issues. I'd take the chance on Nkemdiche.

I don't know that it is a character issue more than the fact he is a moron issue. Any time someone freaks out on that mojo and spends time in a psyche hospital and then turns around and does it again is a moron. That stuff isn't addictive which means he chose to do it again. That stuff is wayyyyyy more likely to give you a psychotic episode than even LSD. I know many hard core drug users who won't touch that stuff. If he is willing to risk a psychotic episode just to smoke something that won't show up on tests what else might he do
