Maybe a move to dt? Guy is 6’7 311 pounds.

Idiotic move, old Payton and Loomis seem to be back.

Man I did not want to say that, but this draft is starting to remind me of yesteryear when we screwed the pooch

Clearly hoping I am way wrong

I guess the good news is there's still some value on the board. Hopefully a few guys keep falling.

But selecting a projected UDFA in the 4th round, how dumb are the FO?

I dunno man.. we can only hope they've got something up their sleeve regarding this guy. A common theme amongst our picks this year seems to be guys who are considered unfinished products. Maybe they're trying to adopt the Patriots philosophy of bringing in guys and molding them in their desired image.

Projected as a UDFA by exactly which NFL GM's and head coaches?? They are the ones that matter. If the front office wanted him and had the feeling that they were not alone in that desire then making the move makes perfect sense.

Projected by who?

Everyone has projections... Saints have him home runs last couple of years. You have to trust their process at this point.

Yes and no. 2006 was a great draft for us and then a few years later we were making questionable selections. So yes and no

2016 and 2017 drafts have been great. What is the difference? Jeff Ireland. This is not the same brain trust as those prior to 2016.
