re: Saints have signed OL Dillon Radunz

quote:

---

Last year, Radunz played right guard. Radunz has lined up everywhere, but he's mostly been on the right side of hte line, at both guard and tackle. He only has 300 snaps at LG.

Radunz was a LT for his college career.

Also, Mike D said that his biggest struggle in the NFL has been getting beat by speed guys that he can't get his hands on fast enough. It was why he struggled at OT. In NOLA, he won't have that issue as he will be flanked by Fuaga and McCoy, so speed guys won't get a free pass on his sides.

Bunchy this could be a 2 OL draft. As it stands now, penning and radunz are here for a year. McCoy, Fuaga and Ruiz locked in for years.

PFF grades for our current OL

McCoy 94.4
Ruiz 67.6
Fuaga 65.7
Penning 60.2
Radunz 57
Saldiveri 56
Landon Young 55.2
Clapp 50.4

Moore has seen the importance of building out OL in Philly and even Dallas

I think even more possibly. Even two for competition at guard and tackle doesn't address the lack of depth quality at every single position. They have got to bring in some solid guys to compete for the bench as well as starters.
Landon and Nick have disappointed so far.

"It’s hard to trust anything our clown of a GM does anymore. He refuses to rebuild."

I also wish the Saints had gone with a "take our medicine now to be better in the future" approach. But they didn't. As that ship has sailed, it does not make sense to criticize every signing because Mickey et al. decided not to be in tank mode. You still don't want to overpay, but I can't say I am made at adding, say, an aging but still speedy WR or a still-young G, so long as the prices are not exorbitant.
