Pitt is a pretty good judge of defensive players and they took Sean Davis at 58. two teams traded before they picked to boot. that was the player to get if you were to trade back for a safety.

If you want to see a hitter watch this kid. listed as a CB but he will move back to a safety.

Von drags players down and worse of all he is a ball tackler.

Re: 2016 Saints Draft Live Discussion Thread

You know what's bothering me about the Jaylon Smith pick...

Now, didn't want to select him and let him redshirt a year, but...

Have to ask if it's not a conflict of interest that Dallas' Doctor on Staff did Jaylon's surgery and follow up prognosis...

Smith was suppose to be all that promise prior to injury...

Then every scout who saw the medical reports and consulted doctors from all over the country basically said he'd be lucky to play again...

And then Dallas takes him at the top of the second round...

Sounds like Jerruh is playing with a marked deck, Texas style...

Kinda the same thing with the UDRFA signing with LSU's La'el Collins...

Collins had admitted how he and Jerruh had been on the phone the past week discussing playing for Dallas...

Then the story hits how he's somehow a possible material witness in a young mother's murder...

Something's rotten in Big Dallas...

Yep sounds like it
Now Smith is saying he could play this year. Sounds like a complete set up. Push everyone else away and get who you want with inside Knowledge

Joel A. Erickson – Verified account ‏@JoelAErickson

Thomas' selection "is no way a reflection on Brandon." Says Thomas is a player who had a very high grade from New Orleans

Payton says there's a couple of different value charts. Saints got an equal or plus value on their chart for trade with Patriots

Larry Holder – Verified account ‏@LarryHolder

Payton said there is a concern about guard in this draft in that the Saints don't have one yet

I see him as a CB who has been playing safety. So the question I have is this, Did the saints draft him to play CB. If so I can see accept the pick better. But his tackling leaves a lot to be desired and needs work. Ball skills is not an issue.

We're not looking for tackles in our secondary more than we're looking for turnovers and deflections.
