Jahan Dotson - WR Penn State

Above avg ROUTE RUNNER. Hands as big as Mike T.
BLOCKS (the best from this draft class) as well as Jamar Chase.

I’d love this pick @ 18.

Again, I’d argue WR is the Saints biggest need in 2022.

You are beginning to convince me.

Gotta fix the offensive line if you're going to give the QB / RB ability to make plays...

We've got big problems at guard...

Draft another center? Hey, if he should fall, it'd be tough to pass up; it'd allow McCoy to move to RG and with McCoy's ability to run, Eric could be an All-Pro...

Naw JP,

Dougie Marrone is in the building now to get that O line steered in the right direction. This is year #3 for RUIZ. Needs to perform up to his draft status or get replaced. You can find big uglies in the mid-rounds as well as in Free Agency.

Jamarr Chase, DeVonta Smith, Jaylen Waddle (10/92 & a TD vs Saints in 2021), Kadarius Toney (6/78 yards vs Saints in 2021) & Rashad Bateman (had more yards than our Trequan Smith in 2021). << All former 1st rounders with IMPACT & were Day 1 starters last season.

MT is a question (ankle) mark & we don't know what he will do after a year layoff. AK is gonna sit for at least 6 games, maybe even more. TE position is SPOTTY. We need PLAYMAKERS.

I'm pushing all of my chips to the center of the table & going WR @ #18.

Just throwing it out there if it happens...

With regards to WR, historically, we've had better return on Day 2 WRs than in the first round...

I'll leave it here ... it's absolutely MIND BOGGLING that outside of the 3rd round TREQUAN SMITH :rolleyes: pick back in 2018, the WR position has been neglected the past 5 drafts.

You'd be hard pressed to find any team in the NFL that has only drafted 1 WR in the early rounds of straight 5 years of drafts.

With MT out all season in 2021, the WR position finally caught up with us.

Drew Brees was just that good I guess.
