OL is a little different than WR in regards to a system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrebetfan80 Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 15 hours ago, RobR said: I can't see a guy like Warford being a fit for what we are trying to do. Then throw in the fact how many guards we've already added to the roster and it doesn't seem feasible. The thing to look for I think will be if someone for some reason cuts a viable Center option. Everything I've heard is while the jets are more than comfortable with mcgovern at center, they feel he is a better guard, so if they could add a viable center and shift him over to LG they would absolutely entertain that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was reported that the Saints, despite his being named to pro bowl again this year, felt his performance has slipped, for what that’s worth.

KRL Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 A couple of things concerning Warford: - Does he fit the scheme we are creating? How nimble/athletic is he? - He's going to want a 3-4 year deal in the neighborhood of 36- 48 million - I wonder if his play is declining. I know NO wanted to free up cap space but they are a premier offensive team with an older, immobile QB. Wouldn't they want the most secure OLine possible to keep Brees upright? If Warford's play hasn't dipped why didn't NO try to trade him? Why not get a future draft pick from a team looking to strengthen their OLine? WSH was able to get two picks for Trent Williams and he hadn't played for over a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSH was able to get two picks for Trent Williams and he hadn't played for over a year I snooped around Saints forums, the consensus seems to be he’s a good player and they’re shocked they couldn’t get a small something in trade. Figure he was cut so they can extend or move quicker on a free agent instead of waiting around for a trade. They already extended two other OL and drafted younger so he was the odd man out. Also wonder if he showed up to camp out of shape and had attitude problems. (They we’re trying to figure if there was more to the story) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetlife33 Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Complaints I’ve seen about Warford from saints forums and subreddit: slow, gets beat in space, was in Payton’s dog house. At initial glance it makes sense to want this guy, but big slow lineman that get beat in space doesn’t seem to fit the athletic approach jets have been going on the o-line for their zone blocking scheme. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetlife33 Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 a source with knowledge of the situation tells Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk that the Bears are not pursuing Warford. Florio says it’s unclear whether Chicago was actually in the mix for Warford at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Mart Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 The New Orleans Saints had their reservations about right guard Larry Warford before they ever used their first-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on center/guard Cesar Ruiz. But with Ruiz’ addition, Warford and his $12.85 million cap hit have now became expendable. The guard has been on a downward trajectory in terms of expected production and has fallen out of favor with the team. https://www.msn.com/en-us/Sports/nfl/5-potential-trade-partners-for-saints-guard-larry-warford/ar-BB13D4CL?ocid=a2hs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
