2017 draft prospects thread

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I think the edge rusher is the best option. One pick that immediately helps two position groups. I'm not sure we need to draft a DB if we shore up our line. At least not in early rounds....

It really depends on what site you go to some saying a 3-4 space eater other comparing him to A'Shawn Johnson and Jarred Reed 4-3. They do say he is a force to deal with. My bad news is 2 sights saying he's returning to Washington for this season. My opionion he would be a great fit.

Re: 2017 draft prospects thread

My prediction is that they are going to draft one person on each level...

OL, WR, O backfield. DL, LB and DB

I hope your right. Although our FO has started the 2 picks for 1 player thing.

Got caught with a gun earlier this year to boot. as a player he is more of a one trick at DE. That is why I like Ryan more.

Here in Indy it's reported that the Colts want a 4th round pick as compensation for losing Fleener.
