Spent my first interview of the day with #Washington EDGE Bralen Trice, who rattled off #Cardinals, #Panthers, #Dolphins, #Rams, #Vikings, #Jaguars, #Saints, #Lions, #Texans, #Seahawks and #Falcons as teams he’s met with.
Told me his power profile helps build his pass rush plan. pic.twitter.com/zY4jhlQF3I

The NFL Scouting Combine is underway for the 2024 draft cycle and the New Orleans Saints have started their formal meetings with prospects in Indinapolis. Recently, the Saints met with Washington defensive end Bralen Trice per The Philly Inquirer’s Devin Jackson.
He could be a good fit for the Saints. The pass rusher is coming off of back-to-back impressive seasons at Washington, finishing his career with 18 sacks and 28.5 total tackles for a loss. He’s known for his strength at the line of scrimmage and reliability in defending the run as well as getting after the quarterback.
But Trice has either shed a lot of weight or had a wildly incorrect profile at Washington, as he was listed at 274 pounds on their roster but checked into the combine all the way down at 245 pounds. Those two weights project to two very different types of players so clearing that up will be a big part of team interviews and evaluations.
