Mocked: Saints to pick CB Jenkins? - David Gladow - New Orleans Sports

Jenkins played well for the Bulls as a senior in '07, notching three interceptions as well as a kickoff return for a touchdown (and a 30.4 average on seven returns). He has good size (6-0, 200) and speed (4.49) and could develop into an above-average cornerback and solid return man at the next level.

I want to see Free Agency begin before we speculate on draft picks any further....

still dont like the idea of a corner in the first. When has that worked out well for us.?

That is correct, no corner drafted in the 1st round has ever worked out for the Saints. Of course the Saints drafted a corner in the first round only once in their entire franchise history. The year was 1996, Alex Molden. No wonder the position has struggled so bad over the years.

And that's EXACTLY why they need one this year with the first pick!!!

Watch out Hagan. Your going to start a fight saying something like that in here.

I got blasted for that a couple of months ago.

Wasn't that the year where Jim "PLAYOFFS?" Mora said he needed help on 'offense', but got lame duck Molden, a DB and RB Eddie George was still on the board?

I just hope Payton doesn't make that same mistake.
