Bro he might not even make it to 8 once the evaluation and combine happen for this kid.  A supposed freak athlete that is an animal in both the pass rush and stopping the run as well as a 4.0 gpa and team leader.   Watch that highlight tape, he is assassinating both guards and tackles. 

I also noticed how bad the officiating is in college sometimes. Dude was getting absolutely flat out tackled on some of those rushes with no flags. I get it, I would try to hold so my QB didn't get his brain scrambled too, but his motor needed to be rewarded some by the zebras. Just seeing his motor and add on the other superlatives, plus he's a native son, no brainer if he's there. These are the kinds of players that change and add to a good culture.

That's something that happened to Pearce a lot this season too.

I worry that we’re going to pray he’ll be “the next Micah Parsons,” and he’ll be over drafted because that’s not going to happen again. Walker seems more like a good pass rusher for a linebacker than a dominant edge. 
 

Which, of course, isn’t usually worth a top-10 pick. 

Fortunately, that works with Evero's scheme. He likes to blitz an LB while using his best pass rusher to draw double teams. If Morgan can restock the secondary with the talent needed, Walker could be a great fit. I can see him taking over Shaq's role (though without the current leadership Shaq brings, of course).

I think he could grow into that leadership role when Shaq leaves.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Cpt slay a ho · Posted

      Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates

      This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
