I'd be lying if I said I am familiar with him. I just looked up his stats. Meh.

Do Nose Tackles regularly put up good stats?

Saunders injury has to be a big deal, we don't have another experienced NT on the team. Boyd is a rookie

Compensation update: Saints are sending a 2025 6th-round pick to the Commanders for DT John Ridgeway III and a 2025 7th-round pick.

Unless you are Aaron Donald, among a few others, looking at defensive stats for DT doesn't paint the full picture.

I see this dude is 6'5" 325 so might just be some added help at NT to hold his ground against 2 Olinemen. Definitely helpful in goal line scenarios.

Not bad for a depth need.

Agreed. Isn’t an URFA until 2027. Inexpensive depth. Can’t argue against this.

That is as close to getting a guy for free as it gets.

A 6th round draft pick is critical for us, you think?

We still have the same amount of draft picks.

Also whomever we draft is going to suck anyway. Might as well get someone already proven to be able to make an nfl roster
