2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; well if that's the case, draft a tweener OT and slide him at guard. Worked with Evans and Nicks so I'm fine with trying it again...

Yeah both Alexander from LSU and the guy from Kansas played OT in college but are projected as guards in the nfl. I hope we can strike magic again with one of the top 3 prospects.

I really like two in this draft as projects

PHYSICAL SCALE
Le'Raven Clark is a 10
Willie Beavers 7

Pro ready SCALE
Willie Beavers 7
Le'Raven Clark is a 4

R2 - Le'Raven Clark has everything you are looking for in a OT/OG physically. Coming from a spread offense his skill sets screams round 4/5. This kid needs some serious coaching but if you want a something pretty you could not ask for more. Huge Boom-or-Bust in round 2. Looks pretty all dressed up but stripped down there are some issues. Round 4 or better yet 5, sure, but round 2? heck of a gamble. Right now he is a media diva

Le'Raven Clark 6052 316
Hands 11 7/8
Arms 36 1/8
40 5.12
20 2.99
10 1.80
3 Cone
20 Shuttle
Bench 18
Vertical 30
Broad 9' 01"

R5 - Willie Beavers small DIII school player is fundamentally sound needs some coaching and playing time but the skill set is there for a 5th rounder. The issue would arise that he has a solid chance of becoming starting LT in the NFL in a few years. So why he is getting up to speed, OG might be a good place to start. Beavers may have what it takes to be a OT in this league but I see a zone OG with huge up side. Needs coaching but two years down the road he should be ready to go. Pro bowl caliber? maybe just maybe. solid starter I would think so.


Willie Beavers OT/OG 6045 321
Hands 9 1/2
Arms 33 1/2
40 5.28
20 3.02
10 1.81
3 Cone 7.75
20 Shuttle 4.71
Bench 20
Vertical 25 1/2
Broad 8' 07"

If I were to go developmental OL at the end of day 2 or at the beginning of day 3 I can live with the gamble.
