Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints
FWIW, I don’t actually think Zaven Collins is a great scheme fit. He’s a Patriots/Dolphins fit in the mold of Donta Hightower, Kyle Van Noy, Jamie Collins, etc. We’ve shown a ton of interest in him though and we LOVE square peg-round hole LB’s.

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints
I challenge y’all to do your first round mocks too and not do that simulator stuff. It’s a lot harder than I thought lol.

Maybe our coaches and scouts eyes are peeled wide open after seeing what Kwon could do next to DD. FWIW, I also like Jabrill Cox. |

Now Jabril Cox, there’s a real baller. If we go with a different position in the 1st I wouldn’t be surprised at all if we traded up in the 2nd for Cox. |

4.36 40 at his Pro Day. Scouts had him highly rated high 2 seasons ago, then the injuries happened. According to his camp, he's completely healthy now. By the way, he's the cousin of former NFL corner Darrelle Revis. |

If he checks out it'll be good to have another CB that might be there |

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints
Oh boy if this true then we need to draft the most pro-ready player who isn’t going to be changing position/scheme and forget about drafting anybody that opted out last season. That’s pretty much how I was already approaching it anyway. |

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints
That would suck if the Cows select Jaycee Horn . Just last year they drafted T Diggs who just had a solid rookie season.
With the Lattimore "situation", I'm all in on the Saints drafting another top tier CB in a few weeks. |
