Got ridiculed for it, but I've said he should be the Left Tackle and he's certainly proved he's more than capable...

Very happy to hear this! He's a real sleeper candidate for the right guard position next season should we choose to not rent Jahri Evans for another year.

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

good to hear.

keep an eye on Jon Toth kentuky for PS in 2017

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Don't forget about Landon Turner. He is coachable I believe.

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Strief is right. That would probably be the best left side in football.

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Skill Set for a swing guard?
Has starting experience at both guard spots and right tackle.

Young as a right tackle?
I just do not see it in the cards. kick slide dance move is a wreck and outside the phone booth was not good to him in college.

solid backup seems to be his calling

Draft a starter?
FA?

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

We need to focus scouting on those corn-fed Universities for two big Steve Hutchinson-type guards...

Somewhere among Indiana's Dan Feeney, Chattanooga's Corey Levin, and/or LSU's Ethan Pocic would be a real good start...

In fact, if it came down to one of these guards or a edge rusher, (can't believe I'm gonna say this), I'd take one of these guys...

And two Day 3 sleepers to watch for are Gamecock transfer Cory Helms and, real deep sleeper, Indiana-PA's Ethan Cooper...

The fourth round has been special for us on the offensive line...
