My favorite time of the year and the WiFi goes out here?!? #FML...

While love idea of drafting another CB, why reach on a CB that's only played the position briefly & most scouting services had a end of R3 thru R4 grade?!?

Mean, you just took Corey White, again, with a second round pick?!?

See now that Penn State FS Jaquan Brisker went one pick right our pick at No. 49 which sucks; maybe Saints have wink-wink deal with Kwon and Honey Badger?

I'd so love to see the Saints Draft Board when this draft has completed...

And it looks like getting inside reviews from coaches, players still is heavily weighted; why not just make Ireland GM and do away with the scouting dept?

Trevor when being asked what he loved about playing the position he plays in football: "Being able to legally assault the person across from you" !

The above is telling that DA chose a CB/Safety... Taylor was worthy.

The common denominator amongst all our picks thus far is a well above average RAS. All of our guys are very smart and fast/quick, even mister nasty LT! Penning is going to need a nickname, if he doesn't have one already.

I think they have a 5th and 6th rounder left for today. My guess is a DT and RB, maybe a TE if there are any worthy ones to consider.

We should do well for our UDFA. We need depth at G.

Struggling to understand that last pick. They are already saying they see him as a CB first. Surely bigger needs than a 4th choice CB.

Foundation to every modern defense - Corner Backs and Defensive Ends - and CBs do get injured...

Have no problem taking a CB, maybe RAS was too heavily weighted vs film, maybe the inside the locker rooms connect between Saints and Tennessee, the player has limited experience...

Bears snatched FS Jaquan Brisker right before at 48 (Honey Badger?); also felt there were better CBs, with better film, which I give the most weight...

Some players valued more, bigger impact on roster - TE Trey McBride, LB Troy Anderson, WR Alec Pierce, LB Chad Muma, CB Jalyn Armour-Davis, FS Kerby Joseph...

But as Chris and Smash suggested, Saints like that empiracal data, in this case, RAS score, and they give it great weight in their selections...
