i saw the rams picked up some good Lbs (chris claiborne e.g.) i'd like to see them bringing him in along with trading up the draftboard to sign DJ...boy that would be one helluva LB corps with developing watson at least i would allow the saints to draft the best player available |

Polley has good height at almost 6\'4\", but he is a bit light for a starting LB at 218 lbs.
Polley:
I\'d just as soon try and get Fujita. Witherspoon and Hartwell are starting to seem to me to be the only real impact backers left available - barring a trade for Howard. I\'m pretty sure we\'ll be getting the BPA with our first pick either way. I\'d like to see us trade down, pick up an extra second rounder and probably take a DT in the first round and go for those other quality LBs in the second round (since I think there is no non-super-costly way to get DJ); I guess, I\'m not buying the Sullivan turn around yet. |

Bockwoldt, IMHO, hasn\'t proven that he can be an impact player. I like his heart and his range, but we really have yet to see what he can do. He is also a bit undersized.
Here is a scouting report:

PS - My problem is more with starting Allen than with starting Bockwoldt. If Bockwoldt were to get huge (in the good way) in the offseason such that he could play the strong side or MLB, then I may change my tune more radically.

I like Buckwoldt. He\'s the Saints next Sammy Knight. Late round pick who will play above his station year in and year out - that\'s my bet. I like the kid. Smart, determined, rangy... and like spk said - all he does is make tackles.

Bockwoldt\'s a keeper. Comes cheap, and earns more than his check every week. When so many players on our team don\'t earn half of what they\'re paid, Bockwoldt\'s a refreshing sight.
I like him, too. He\'s just one of those guys you wanna pull for. |
