Gustin was looking to become a Clay Matthews-like playmaker for the Trojans in 2017, and not just because he shared the same long, blonde hair. He had earned honorable mention All-Pac-12 honors in 2016, starting all 13 games, posting 68 tackles, 13 for loss, 5.5 sacks, and four pass breakups. He ended up missing most of his junior season, however, with a biceps injury and a broken toe, playing in only four games with two starts (16 tackles, three sacks). He also missed half of his senior season due to a broken ankle (five starts in six games played), but still led the Trojans with seven sacks among his 28 tackles, 10 for losses. The former Parade All-American and four-sport star in Utah (football, baseball, basketball, track) lived up to the hype as a true freshman, starting twice in 14 games, making seven tackles for loss, including 5.5 sacks on the year (25 total tackles).

Don't the Saints have an Oft-injured QB from BYU as well as Oft-injured Florida linebacker?

Will we ever learn? Never sign players with injury histories...

Porter must stay healthy at camp & get every rep possible to make a lasting impression on coaches.

low risk-high reward signing
if he lands on the PS or IR and red-shirts a year it could still be a win for the future

he's got a great chance to make it just based on the RB depth chart. Look at the vet re-treads we brought in last year who were completely ineffective

Re: UDFA Tracker Thread

Wow. Roughly 25% of active rosters are UDFA. That's more than I assumed. Makes sense though.

Devine Ozigbo ... maybe he will be "that guy" most wanted in Boston Scott last season.
