LB Pete Werner (New Orleans Saints)

Will be surprised if he goes beyond Round One... and if so, he's a steal...

He's the biggest hitter we have had at LB that I can remember...he's 6 foot 3 245 pounds and runs like a freaking safety.

Yeah I don’t see that. I see a mid to late 2nd round guy. And I love Pete.

Werner probably won't win the award because: (1) he did not enter the 2020 season with a huge reputation; and (2) he'll have a smaller body of work in 2020 than many of the other finalists; but Werner really is having a great season and deserves some post-season accolades.

Ryan Day on Pete Werner: "I think he's playing as good as anybody in the country at linebacker. ... He's a man. He maybe didn't come in here that way, but he's leaving a man."

Really think he will have a long career at the next level. Good luck Pete!

I don’t think anyone expected him to stay, but he was apparently thinking about it for an extra week.

Thanks for everything Pete, you had an outstanding career here and were absolutely critical for our defense this year. Hope he makes some money and balls out at the next level.

He looks closer to 6'1" 220 to me. Will be curious to see what his official measurements are. Maybe it's the #20 that makes him look smaller

About the same here, it seemed like he bulked up a little this season though and his tackles seemed to register more. That said, I do think his measurables are closer to what you said. Not sure it would hurt him all that much, undersized LBs have been working out in the NFL from what I can tell.

Best wishes Pete! It was enjoyable to see you kick so much ass!
