Who is that 6'9 275lb DE from Baylor?

Do you have to be that good if you are a freak of nature?

quote:

Allen was one of the draft's most surprising free agents. Allen (6'1/294) was a 2015 first-team All American, finishing his Michigan State career with 47 starts — 42 at center and five at left guard. Likened to longtime Bears C Olin Kreutz by O-Line guru Lance Zierlein, Allen overcomes size and athletic deficiencies with big hands (10 1/8"), an ability to anchor and sometimes even overpower bigger nose tackles and a tenacious playing demeanor. Rotoworld college prospects guru Josh Norris rated Allen as a top-50 player in this year's class.


I wouldn't be surprised if he starts some games for us this season. Saints are killing it as usual with UDFAs.

Yeah Allen looks good, he's the kind of guy we always miss on.

Young sounds promising at guard as well

Allen, Young and Turner are huge gets for us.

If we had drafted one of them instead of Lasco or DO, some of the trolls in here would have liked this draft.

As you said the Saints seem to be killing it in UDFA.

Looks good so far cause we damn sure needed some competition in camp.

Yeah I like all of them

Pettway should be good DE depth and Harris/Elston should be good DB depth

At 6'1 295 where will Allen play?

We have Max Unger and he seems a little small to play guard.

Just nice depth to have on the line. Unger is going to be a free agent too so you never know what could happen.

He can add 10 to 15 lbs over a year easy. Don't need him to start this year (if he is that good).

DB Trae Elston Ole Miss

Dude was 4th in interception yards with 4 ints. Seemed like he was a pretty big play maker for the Rebels. Surprised he went undrafted. Good signing imo.

Saints sign Ball St. WR Jordan Williams

Snead's old teammate. I watched some footage of him on NFLN today. Looked really solid. Pretty good size too. Not sure how his other intangibles go, but I hope this works out for us.

Anybody know where Jeremy Cash is headed? Maybe I'm just an idiot but I don't see anything.
