A Mock with Star Lotulelei to us
 
I have been checking out this site ever since the interview they had with Joe Morgan. This is a great first half of a mock, what do you think?

Only one thing wrong with that:

Once Lotulelei’s medical report is found out to be nothing, he will not get out of the top ten picks.

I still feel that he could be there when we select

That's my dream pick.

Rather have Jesse Williams, Alabama...

He Practiced against 3-4 potential first rounders this past season alone; and he's not having any smokescreens about his health or heart...

STAR LOTULELEI TRUMPS Jesse Williams WHY BECAUSE CHECK OUT NUMBERS Star ran faster benched 8 more reps and he can also slide to the DE in 3-4 in a run situation or heck he's quick enough like I believe he can be used just like Ngata and Wilfork! He is going to be more than a run stuffer like Jesse Williams. Star will put some pressure on the qb! IN MY OPINION. Star L., Sharrif Floyd, Sylvester Williams are the only DTs worth a 1st rd pick!

Would Mickey and Sean trade UP to get him? Is Star that good and would it be wise?

Re: A Mock with Star Lotulelei to us
 
I don't know If I would trade up, he might fall to us

If he falls I would be in heaven.

TRADE DOWN!!!

Re: A Mock with Star Lotulelei to us
 
I would be surprised if he drops to 15, it would be nice though. Still I would like to trade down for a 1 and a 2

i really have problems seeing the saints not going for flash in round one. OL and DT are not exactly impact or flashy. I think Ellis was the one pick that went non instant flashy impact. history is not on our side here.

then again a year off may have changed is way of thinking. lets hope

I agree with that and would add after the medical report was made public if he does drop to 15 I wouldn't take him anyway because all the other teams that passed on him would know something was wrong or not willing to take that chance because they are uncertain about the report

He will fall and be available at #15.

Re: A Mock with Star Lotulelei to us
 
He would be the only player in the 1st round at pick 15 I would use my 1st pick on at DT, if he doesn't fall at 15, trade down for a late 1st and mid 2nd.

Re: A Mock with Star Lotulelei to us
 
If the main function of a NT is to "eat up blockers and space" there's at least 15 NT prospects in this year's draft who are over 6' & 320lbs.

Yes Star is a top talent but how much better is he than a guy we could scoop in round 3-5?

I wouldn't trade up for a NT. If he's there at 15, sure.

lee909 03-24-2013 10:31 AM

I hope he is there at 15,not because I really want us to draft him but somebody later on in the draft may be willing to trade up.

As long as we don't get a first round bust. Sometimes you just don't know who is and isnt legit.

With the the way our first round luck is, you can label anyone drafted in the first round a bust or non factor. Anyone in rounds 3-7 are pro bowlers.

Well we did get Jordan and Jenkins they have done well. I think our drafting in first rounds have been better. Robinson we really don't know yet. Ingram either. Reggie has talent but we did not utilize him right.

I can agree about the men on your list except for Jenkins(P Robs last chance this year). He had one good year when Sharper was here. Aside from that he's looked lost and doesn't tackle well at all. He is a greart athlete and hustles non stop.

But I don't think he's that smart. Unfortunately, RR runs a read and react system from what I've read. Watching Jenkins having to make a decision scares the hell out of me.
He and Harper were rated the two worst safeties in the NFL. Maybe he can play SS, but he needs to tackle better.
