No to a LB from the Pac 12. And the OG plays for one of the offensive teams in the SEC but that's worrisome. A&M I don't really consider to be a true SEC team because the team isn't really in SEC territory.

Trying hard not to geaux all Danneaux on you...

You do realize the kind of athlete that Shaq is?!?

He just doubled up as he was pressed into duty as a running back and rushed for 178 yards in a win against Colorado?!?

This is EXACTLY the kind of athlete we need in our linebacking corps...

Re: 2015 draft??

I'm done with trying to figure out SP. He tried to get cute last year in the draft and blew it in the later rounds. Not to mention a rd 2 pick who never saw the field. How bad did he have to be not to play any on one of the worst defenses?

Re: 2015 draft??

If we do stay in the top 10 we should be in a great position to pick up a top OT(quite like Collins who i have read is jumping up the boards,especially as he can take over at both T/G.) or take the best pass rusher on the board. In round 2 should be in a position to take one of McKinney,Kendricks or Perryman to slot alongside Lofton.

ingram gone , khery can handle that role pt comes back for his last then retires, pick up a forth or fifth round rb its worked before. bring in at least 4 offensive lineman from 2 thru 4th rounds build that o-line up. don't even have to say who payton gets in round 1 BPA im sure

Re: 2015 draft??

Can anyone tell me how deep this draft is and at what position is it deepest?

Last year was a deep draft at WR, is there any position like that this time around?

I wonder if trading back is actually the answer.

I would love to see Collins at 10. If he is gone I would trade out. The Saints need a O-lineman that can play multiple positions if needed and he is that guy. I don't think MI will go anywhere so I believe we are ok at RB. I see him getting a PT type of deal (his first resigning). ILB is a concern but only because Lofton is making 10 million next year! The guy is good but not 10 million good. O-line and CB has got to be the biggest needs in the draft. I would also not be surprised to see Bryce Petty (Baylor QB) in the 3rd or Jake Waters ( KSU QB) in the 5th. I think SP has tried enough to get a free agent to replace Brees. Not going to happen.

Trading back could be great if done right.I would love a #1, 2-#2 and a extra 4th, I got no ideal how to pull that out but if we pick around 7th or 8th I think trading down slowly it could be done, even if we give up next years 7th. Hell we give alot for Ingram and Cooks why wouldn't another team. And while I'm on the subject a couple trades could happen and we clean house in the draft, my nominees are #1Graham- to soft.#2. Bush- much overrated in my book that comment can be said for #1 also.#3. I would defenitly send feelers to teams on JR. ( do a little fishin' to see if you get a big enough bite, if so SET THE HOOK) Graham will net a #1, Bush a #4, and JR.well he might be gold but I would take no less than 2 #2

Re: 2015 draft??

Bush may be our best safety and no one will take on JR's contract. Graham could draw some intrest but not enough to unload him. No chance of trades this offseason. Contracts to high with to little play.
