[LoE]

I knew they would double-dip on OLINE this year!

 

[Saint James]

Championship

 

[SuperSaint]

He's got the measurables...

 

[TruSaint]

Longest wingspan in the history of the league lol

 

[Ti Rider]

I like the pick. 6’ 6” 329 lb.

 

[TenTwo]

I feel like this could be the best Draft in Saints history.

 

[SaintsSpringBayou]

Oh blessed day! My end of draft line of fat bodies has arrived!

 

[Tulsa Saint]

Comes from a soccer family interesting and he’s a converted DL.

He’s big. Converted Dline player. I am a fan of that because they have a mental edge of what is attacking them. Huge wingspan. That is the type of guy you take a flyer on.

 

[Infoman]

Huge man and athletic project. Used to play defense. If he learns how to play could be a steal of a player. Worth a flyer in the 7th.

 

[RaisingTheBar]

I know nothing about him, someone give me the quick, but honest, rundown.

Overview​

A defensive lineman turned right tackle, Ezirim possesses the size, length and upside to intrigue NFL evaluators. He’s still very green and needs additional experience and coaching before he can line up against NFL competition. His pass sets lack ideal lateral quickness, but he’s plenty athletic and has the lower-body flexion to set a sudden anchor. He’s fluid as a move blocker and playing with a better base width will improve his sturdiness at the point of attack. If he can improve his core strength, Ezirim could develop into a backup tackle/guard
