Facts. I’m excited about Taylor. He has all the physical gifts.

So hoping you're right...

Don't disagree on physical talent, but is he a R2 pick able to play significant snaps, or will he need a couple of seasons? If the latter, is he still a R2 pick?

That's the issue I raise, not his talent, but is he a R2 pick, able to play immediately?

WR Dai'Jean Dixon played in my backyard and his game is very comparable to former Saints Great WR Marques Colston; he'd be my favorite darkhorse...

TE Lucas Krull needs a true TE jersey No. in the 80s (not some Dallas Clark homage); wouldn't be surprised if Saints roster or redshirt him...

And how do you not pull for a guy like Smoke Monday who's a throwback to days of the heavy hitters in the secondary...

Would love to see Abram Smith step up and knock a limited veteran off the roster...

Why does that matter?

I think he should be able to contribute early on. At least I hope. I’m starting to wonder if we’ll see more Dime and Dollar sets with all these DB’s we have. We could literally having formations with Maye at FS, Badger at SS, Lattimore and Adebo on the outside, and Roby/Taylor and Ceedy Deuce on the inside. I love the depth.

All of our DB’s seem to have come out pretty strong and caught on fast over the last several years. I’m hoping the trend continues.

Hiring DB coaches such as Aaron Glenn and Kris Richard with Jeff Ireland-led scouting hasn't hurt either...

Don't think an NFL team has ever had this kind of depth in its secondary in NFL history; maybe Denver...

The point is valid in that it took Mark Ingram about three years to get it. His cost was much higher, by comparison.
