You got the AIDS. By the way, Canadian football is fricking weird.

Like the pick...high upside project and value fitting a need, especially at the arse end of R3.

Is our D-line coach suspended? Gotta get that coaching in quickly over training camp and the pre-season if so.

Rahim might get a call from the saints as an FA after the draft is over.

Why are people saying high risk high reward? Where's the risk? He's our first pick, but he was almost a 4th round pick.

They just interviewed him on WWL. He sounded really excited to be a WhoDat and likes being back in La. At times he was too excited to speak. Said he's been working on leverage and technique very hard and that he understands that's where he needs to improve.
