Here’s what he has the Saints doing and I think we’d be very pleased:

28. New Orleans Saints- LB Jabril Cox, LSU
Analysis: Barring a massive trade and a lot of assets trading hands, the Saints head into the offseason without an expected starting quarterback.

With no quarterbacks on the board who can become the replacement to Drew Brees, the Saints are likely to rely on the return of Jameis Winston and Taysom Hill to solve the quarterback position.

So where do you go with pick No. 28 overall? You address the defense.

Jabril Cox was hard to miss at LSU thanks to his 6’4”, 245 pound frame and ability as a lockdown coverage linebacker when matched up against tight ends and backs. He shined once again during Senior Bowl week and secured his position as a Round 1 talent.

The former North Dakota State star has the athletic tools, coverage traits and instincts the NFL craves for linebackers.

60. New Orleans Saints
The Pick: CB Elijah Molden, Washington
Previous Pick: LB

U sure they not from Ohio state[emoji12]

What's up with all the finger pointing lately JP?

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints

NDSU QB Trey Lance is incredible. Obviously I don’t know how high his football IQ is but there’s so much talent there. He played under center in a pro-style offense and has an absolute cannon for an arm. The only thing I haven’t seen yet is if he can throw with touch on the RB check downs.

Not to mention his mobility!

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints

My major needs are OT, LB'er, CB, or safety depending on who we re-sign. We desperately need depth along the line. Kwon is out and we need another LB'er with side line to side line speed who arrives with bad intentions. We may not be able to re-sign Jack rabbit and the safeties are good but we may miss Williams if we can't afford to out bid the best offer.

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints

Outside of Lattimore, Saints are getting up in age at CB. I could see us going defense at pick #28.

Maybe a LB in round 2.

Tyson Campbell - CB Georgia Bulldogs

Kris Richard could polish him up into a bona fide boundary corner.

Jaycee Horn - CB South Carolina

Good size, willing tackler & solid football skills/IQ. Opted out remainder of 2020 after November. In case you are wondering, Jaycee is the son of former Saints WR Joe Horn.

Last time we took a "Molden" at CB it didn't work out too well. ;)

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints

Really like what I’m seeing of Miami DE Jaelan Phillips. Such a well-rounded DE.
