Who was the last no-name OL the Saints reached on that the Saints Talk had to eat crow over being actually solid? Just curious


Everyone forgot how great a pick that FSU guard was in the 4th round they reached for. Entire fan base said it was a major reach and bad pick. Who ate the crow on that one?

To be fair Roaf was high first round pick. Everyone in NFL knew he was good.

Bradford could barely get in the field at LSU. He’s getting drafted in potential, just like Salvideri


They are really opposites.

Bradford is a monster. Strong. His limitations are technique and athleticism.

Salviseri is a technician who moves well. His limitation is strength and size.

He’s huge bro. 6’6 320. He benched 24 reps at 225. More than Bresee or Foskey.

Bradford's issues were his pass blocking. He was an absolute beast road grader. They're probably drafting him on that potential. In the running game if Bradford got his hands on someone the holes just opened up.

Seattle loves bigger guards.

The Saints don't.

Do we even know if the Saints pick will move to guard?

You have to take the scheme into account also.

I think many on this board dismiss fit.

I would never bet against an o-lineman picked by the saints. It’s the one thing they do really well.

Conversely I would never bet for an o-lineman picked by Seattle

Interior lineman are very hard to judge by the basic football fan....

Trust the staff to do the homework.

Yeah agreed. The Saints do really well here especially better in later rounds.
