We selected a guy that has failed to stay on the field for any full season at the same position.
Beckwith got hurt his Sr year after starting for years. If you can't see the difference you are an idiot.

They don't play the same position, nor do they project to. Now the UF LB had the athleticism to play all 3 linebacking spots in the SEC, but he's an OLB at the NFL level. He has the athleticism to cover downfield and get after the QB. Beckwith is a MLB tweener with exceptional instincts.

I have no issues with Beckwith. I was trying to explain, apparently too quickly, how timing of an injury due to evaluation impacts draft stock. If you can't understand why, you're an idiot.
Btw, you're an idiot.

Examples of what? That's what I asked from you

Beckwith is a thumper MLB
Analzone plays all three lb spots and can play on 3rd down
If you're not even going to try and compare players in a legitimate manner why even bother posting.

So injury history is ok as long as it's an LSU guy?
But brining up injuries and injury prone in the draft these days is a little overrated
Look at the players taken and look at their injuries ad amount of games missed. It's staggering.
Look at this Alex cat from UF, shite look I'm the first with Lat and his hammer, look st LF7 still taken early as frick.... shite look at the bears Channeling their inner Ditka and mortgaging the entire future to move one spot on a player that had started 13 games.
College is nothing but a stepping stone so I think it's hard to judge players by time missed from
Injuries and the best you can do is go off your doctors evaluations
Just my $0.02

Quit being a homer. That's how losers think.

See the last line of my previous post Radio
Does the word history really need to be defined for you?
Way to ignore the position BS you brought up too

Im with you on this one. TB also got "injury prone" kwon Alexander last year and he's a tackling machine.
Posted on 4/28/17 at 11:15 pm to TigerBait1127
I think you have a sequential reading defenciency.
Since you are obviously a mental midget let me help you out.
I asked how one injury was history.
You replied to me that I cannot be serious.

Beckwith got hurt his Sr year after starting for years. If you can't see the difference you are an idiot.
But be objective about this. The Florida guy apparently had some issues early, but overcame that. He was back on the field and was tearing it up, until he broke his forearm.
Unless his arm broke because he has some serious condition, that's just a fluke injury, and he should be back at 100%.
Beckwith had the more productive career in college, but had a season-ending ACL injury late, and nobody really knows how well that is rehabbing yet. That's a legit issue.
Now, how either would fit the Saints' team:
The Saints are stout up the middle, with Fairley and Rankin. It's doubtful they would be gashed inside.
They just drafted a kinda light, primarily pass-rushing DE, so when that guy (or Kikaha) are out there, there may be some concern about a back getting outside.
Beckwith is an inside backer, Anzalone would be an OLB I assume. More athletic, so better suited to drop into coverage, and shore up the outside lanes for the run.
Just fits better.

It is obvious that most of naysayers have no idea how to draft. The kid from Florida, when he played, was a great player. His athleticism and ability in coverage is there. We need guys who can play in space, and he can do that. He will hopefully become a better tackler, but what we need in our division was addressed.
I love the pick. If he stays healthy (and I think he will) he will be a starter.
You take risks with players of this guys potential. Beckwith is good, but his speed and ability to cover is NILL.
