And that's really it, you're looking at his splits in the 40 and for red flags like a really slow time ...

Keep saying it - do these drills in pads and you'll see greater efficiency in the draft process...

I'm not crazy about Evans at all - sneaking suspicion he reached his peak at Bama behind a superior line ...

Looks to be another Tide Roller that looks like Tarzan in College, plays like Jane in the Pros...

And the fact he's not running the 40, like he's hiding something, that just creates more doubt, reservations...

Give me young guys with nothing to lose who aren't afraid to compete...

I can’t wait until the first big wave of free agency because mock drafts are useless until then. We always address our biggest needs in free agency so I’m curious how things change for us as it relates to the draft.

usually dont post during the season but the offseason is when i get back to checking threads more frequently. not sure who the majority of b&g is big on but i’d like to hear peoples top 5. I’m pretty sure Taven Bryan is one of my draft crushes this year. so much talent and potential.

Saints are one of the better teams at using Free Agency to mask their draft intentions...

No but I think we're keeping options open. Peat will even be better this year. Experience the same team on the O line is very important. I think we might replace Zach and be done with it.
