The word is he struggled with audibles at the line and the snap repoire was less than desirable from the QB's side...

No, Brother. That's ideal, prototype, textbook contract numbers for a veteran swing offensive lineman...

Only way he goes is if Clapp steps up to the next level which I'd love to see, but he's not gotten as strong two years in the NFL...

Me too... plus he's an LSU guy. Maybe we can get that other LSU OL tomorrow.

Armstead made a name for himself at the Senior Bowl coming from the SWAC. He was already a terrific athlete. I followed him closely his senior year and was looking for him to replace Brown.

It’s not just if you heard or knew of a player, it’s what his value is at the pick. I’m not disappointed in the pick mainly because it doesn’t surprise me. I just thought that if either LB was available or maybe WR, that’s where we would go. McCoy was a definite need and had a low 1st to mid 2nd Rd grade on him. Ramz had a 1st Rd grade on him as well.

They weren’t big names like most skill players but I was ecstatic that we got Armstead in 2013.

Ruiz gets low - really, really low in his blocks - That's important in getting underneath interior d-linemen, taking the leverage away, and forklifting them into their own linebackers...

Teams need Guards, he'll get a sign and trade where it takes the load off that 1st year, relief for the Saints, new team (MIA ?) will get a veteran guard, and well get a Round 3 or 4 pick...

Did you guys notice that Goodell didn't engage the Saints' fans at all before he announced the pick?

Not a big deal, but seemed weird since he did it with all other picks that I noticed.

Alright Brothers, good discussion, exciting first round, little deflating bit of a reach for us in Round 1, but it was still smart and showed the offensive line is the priority...

Excellent Pizza Pie and Cold Yuengling - Time for a four hour nap...

May have to get one of those Popeyes Sammiches which will be one less than that rookie can have, right Smash?

Sammiches. That's funny right d'ere!

Would love to move Warford and a fifth for MIA Round 2 pick, even our original pick and take RT Ezra Cleveland...

Then we could move Ram to LT and Mr. Glass could get us another Day 2 pick like LBer Logan Wilson or maybe, a defensive end or cornerback I dare not jinx...

Thanks everyone for a great first round watch party! I was upset that we got sooo close to getting Justin Jefferson but Cesar Ruiz was another guy in my “bubble” so I’m happy. Can’t wait for tomorrow!

No, look he graded solidly as a blocker, it's just that the added responsibilities were a bit much for him...

If you move him off the ball, he can focus on blocking assignments only - a mid 80s graded lineman now just mauling; so you get younger, stronger, cheaper at RG...

Now you can extend Ramczyk, Lattimore, Kamara, Mr. Marcus...

And you still have Anzalone and T-Rex contracts coming due...

Go figure...

Look at those combine numbers - a 5.08 40? 28 reps on the BP? 33 inch Vertical? PFF has started a good system, but it's flawed with the subjective nature of sketchy graders...

Besides, he's gonna play Center, and McCoy will move to Guard...
