Daniel Mogollon, of NFLDraftBible.com, reports University of Southern California LB Keith Rivers has a private workout scheduled with the New Orleans Saints......
Not worth a # 10 position pick, very much so worth bringing in for a looksy to see where we SHOULD Draft him at if the workout looks good.
Only if we trade down................otherwise please God don't waste a 10 pick on this player.
Morgan is only a stop gap measure with MAYBE the possibility of working out for a few years. Rivers is noted as being able to play inside or outside and I think it's a pretty good bet that he will see considerable playing time in his first year if we draft him.The only problem with Rivers is playing time. If everything works out, Fujita-Vilma-Morgan would be our starters and Rivers would have to fight to get playing time. I know Morgan is a long shot, but he did have almost two years off. It would a better pick if we fill a need if somebody is around with the same talent. The top 2 LBs went back to school, which sucks for us.
Yes, but so would a 2nd or 3rd round WLB over The Shanle. It's about value.Isn't the draft about getting better?
Rivers would make us better. Whats the problem?
I saw all I needed to see on the first link where the have Ali Highsmith ranked before Shawn Crable.How is Rivers not worth the 10th pick? He is rated in the 7 - 12 best player in the draft by many in the draft industry.
Draft Countdown - 9
ConDraft - 12
NFL Draft Dog - 10
NFL Draft Scout - 9
Most mock drafts have him going no later than the 12th pick.
I'd bet we take Rivers if he is available. I doubt he makes it to us though...
