Maye, Matthieu, Ceedy

Adebo, Latt then the usual suspects upfront/LBs.

Now you can go compete :bng:

Re: Saints Getting Some Love
 

I'd say compete with the bar at it's lowest. This group could be a top 3 D in the league if they stay healthy!

What do they base grades upon? That is the most bogus concept about the draft. Unless you have a working crystal ball any grades are totally meaningless.

Re: Saints Getting Some Love
 

We almost always get bad draft grades but field a top five roster every year. Hmmm.....

Re: Saints Getting Some Love
 

Grades schmades...!

Re: Saints Getting Some Love
 

I like what Bruce Murray and Mark Dominick do on NFL Radio. They look back four years prior to grade the drafts of the individual teams. They are about to begin looking at the 2018 draft this coming week. A's turn into C's and D's turn into A's depending upon actual results, not fruitless predictions.

Re: Saints Getting Some Love
 

I agree that most of these grading systems are bogus. The best I can gather from my very limited knowledge is that it is likely based somewhat on where a guy was projected to be drafted versus the spot drafted at, and how well did you fill your needs or improve your roster. In the Saints case many felt the ultimate cost of gaining the extra first round pick, then moving up to get a WR was a huge cost for a non-QB. Their 2nd round pick, many felt Taylor was a reach and not a real need for the team. Something like that...

Re: Saints Getting Some Love
 

Yeah. The Saints felt they didn't NEED a QB and had targeted both Olave and Tayler as players they absolutely wanted from what I have gathered from both Loomis and Allen. They have pointed out both the high character and work ethics of the players they selected. And, I doubt either care in the least what the "draft experts" think, right?

I think he nails it on Winston here.
