Solid run stopper.

Guess one or both of Shepherd and Saunders will be gone soon.

Shepherd needs to be cut already. Dude did absolutely nothing. Saunders sucked too but he'd at least have a splash play here and there.

Good move. Odds are he will be better than anything you can get in the 7th round.

Veteran bodies at DT is a must right now. Not a bad move.

Good pick up. At best he fills a big need for us, at worst he is a rotational guy on the line.

For a 7th round pick, I'm gonna take it with a smile.

Great rotational piece. He isn’t your fix at NT.

Short of Godchaux being injured in training camp and a team getting a unicorn 7th-round pick next season, he is a better value than any 7th-rounder that will come out of next year's draft.

The odds are definitely against it, but you can’t know that.


The saints all time receiver was picked in the 7th.
San Fran just picked their franchise qb in the 7th.

I can't believe that he's already going into his 9th season. Hasn't missed a game in 4 years so he's durable.

That would be the unicorn 7th round pick he mentioned.

What are we paying him this year is the question.

He's played at NT in a 3 man front most of his career and has started for a lot of that I think, so certainly could be.
