Living in Dallas, I've seen local kids up close and in person as early at 13/14 years old compete, many go on to college & a select few see their dreams become a reality on NFL draft day. Kyler Murray (Allen High), Myles Garrett - (Arlington Martin High), Matthew Stafford (Highland Park), Chase Daniels (Southlake), Solomon Thomas (Coppell) all good kids I've watch perform as teenagers become "big time" & NFL stars on Sundays.
My love of the sport has nothing to do with whether or not the Saints ultimately select them on draft day. I enjoy the interaction and opinions from others (Smash, JP, Rez, JNormand,Lee909,76, XVI, Rugs, Papz etc) on this board on scouting players, best "fit" & predictions on how they'll translate from college to the next level.
We don't have to wait for the "experts" predict who they think is best fit in the draft for the Saints ;).
Fun, healthy draft conversations.

I missed this post while I was off to the Nashville honky-tonks. Thanks for the input, K! It doesn't bother me. I'm just curious because I have never got into it myself. I can clearly see your motivation with your explanation. With your interest in local youth football, high school, and college ball it makes sense. The only high school games I have seen were when my youngest played. He never played football before or after. It was baseball growing up before then and then music after. My older son swam through high school and into college.
I was seriously wondering where the motivation came from. I seems to me you are more interested in the players themselves more than attempting to figure out who you would want be be drafted by the Saints. It that correct?
I'm assuming the others that are into it have some sort of the same background and I can understand sharing that interest. Is this correct? Anyone else up to sharing their love of the pre-draft?
