LINK Nice depth signing IMO just in case Unger isn't ready Week 1.

Here's his draft profile from 2014. Looks like he has some size and talent.
nfl.com draft profile
Here's his ESPN draft profile. I'll have to copy and paste it.
Chris Watt OG Senior 6-2?, 310 lbs Notre Dame
Scouts Grade 54
Position Rank 10
Overall Rank 163
Arm Length 32-5/8"
Hand Size9-3/8"
40-YD Dash 5.04
The biggest concern when it comes to Watt is his ability to hold up against NFL interior pass-rushers. He has active hands and fights to stay in front of defenders, but he has shorter arms and average lateral mobility. He's a better run-blocker. He flashes the ability to generate push as a drive blocker, and he can cover up defenders in a zone scheme.
San Diego's zone-blocking scheme fits Watt very well. While he's not a great athlete, he is a tough guy -- just what the Chargers' line has been missing. San Diego will be much better up front as Watt adds depth at guard.

Hopefully this is more to do with Jack Allen's inability to snap the ball consistently and less to do with Unger's timetable for a return...

I just hope the Saints sell out on getting the best 0-line they can put together by any means for the first half of the season.
Get behind and the second half won't matter.

Listening to the radio yesterday Triplett was on and mentioned this guy played LG in college three years. He could be a slide in there to move Peat to LT.
