Glad you posted this. I thought of this play when reading the other saunders thread. I think it is a major factor in what was wrong with bruce as OC. _________________ I laugh at you . . . blatantly Ben

I hope it works out  I really like Saunders. He has potential to be a very special player in this system. I don't believe his roster spot is in jeopardy post draft...It could be though.

I'm a fan too, he's deceptively quick and fast. Got good depth really quick in NE game. Showed good speed on the crosser on Mike Wallace 95 yd TD catch as well

Big, fast, good hands, nice body control--very athletic play. Does he block well?

Oh... And Ben is a fuckin stud. I just toss that out there with no meaning whatsoever.

Saunders is a good blocker in-line...Not great I agree with IC there is room for improvement
Saunders is excellent down field as a blocker...Also very good blocker on special teams

Were his parents trying to be unique, or did they not know how to spell "Wesley"?

The only way he'd be in trouble is because of the current "logjam" at TE.
But I'd hope they'd give him a chance.
I'm not a fan of Leonard Pope, nor really of Paulson (don't know a lot about him, but what I've seen of game highlights here doesn't impress me).
Saunders looks like the athletic, quick TE that could become a RZ target.
I hope he wins his appeal so he can prove it on the field.
