Reuben Foster apologizes, says he’ll discuss incident with teams before Alabama’s pro day | ProFootballTalk

FWIW, I can forgive Reuben for his untimely mistake/outburst and if he is there at #11 I'd still select him. He is a play maker. We're short of those defensively in New Orleans.

Agreed. But he'd better leave that "Do you know who I am?" Bull**** in the Alabama Linebackers Room...

Hmm... King and Hooker aren't running the 40, Hooker's surgery is a little worrisome for such a high pick...

Like Adoree' Jackson more than Sidney Jones especially as Jackson can help in the return game...

Jackson could come in at the slot corner to start...

I will not knock Sidney Jones coverage skills one bit. I will point out the limited ability he has in coming up in run support.

Exactly, and at 186 lbs, he'll be much like Keenan Lewis, feisty in coverage, but a liability in run support and with defending against large receivers in post-up situations...

Marlon Humphrey: 4.41 is my number tease I just can not shake in round 1. The upside appears to be there for all pro. Then again bama CB scare me.

Howard is the safest pick still IMO. You know what you are getting and upside appears there to be a perennial pro bowl player at his position more than anyone else in the draft

Adoree' Jackson with one year of dedication to CB has come so far it is scary to think how good he might become. Then there is the height issue especially in our division. Ob the flip side he solves return issues freeing up a dew rosters spots. He is also a depth addition at WR free up yet another roster spot.

Ra Howard
Rb Humphrey
R2 LB
R3 Jackson

Would be a nice start to a draft

Jamal Adams is going before Malik Hooker if for no other reason than healthy, ready to go...

If we somehow ended up in the Top 8, you gotta take the Tiger, Sean
