With the 27th Pick, the New Orleans Saints Select...

QB/WR Lamar Jackson

Stop me if you've heard this one before: Larry Holder riled up people on Twitter.

Oh, I wrote something about this last week you say?

Congratulations on being a loyal reader, listener and viewer of "Dunc & Holder." We thank you.

On Thursday, the NFL Network's Peter Schrager released his first mock draft, and with the 27th overall pick he has the New Orleans Saints selecting Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson.

That sound you hear is the collective screeching car of Saints fans the world over.

Naturally, Holder wanted to really get the juices flowing this morning and tweeted a link to Schrager's work with a bit of his own spin as well.

Taysom Hill might be as fast as Lamar Jackson anyway. This won't be our pick. I'd take the best RB in the draft-Darius Guice. Who I really want later is DJ Chark. If we got Guice and Chark we'd have the best RBs and WRs in tge league. Arden Key in the 2nd rd would give us the best DEs in the league. Christian Locotoure in the 4th solidifies the D line and we're ready to roll.

Have to go with best. We can make another run with a play maker but not with picks riding the pine. Guice would be a great pick. Have to have the run game solid and take the workload off Brees like last season. If Guice is gone go Randolph and make us into a RB nightmare. Brees, two agile RB's. Good luck stopping that situation.

Front seven on defense and interior offensive line - can't keep saying it enough...

And we don't need to take running backs in the first round...

Rez, I see some NFL scouts are listening to Bill Polian instead of watching Lamar's body of work. See below.

Billy,

Is there any specific player(s) in the draft you can suggest that didn't play at LSU?

We gave our second round up I thought.
