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.

Oh no we don't have a WR problem little speedo. The internet told you so about mid-season...

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...

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting

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 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.
