Re: Mock Drafts 2023

Jaxon Smith-Njigba
WR

"THEE" Ohio State

Serious hands & solid route runner. Day 2 (rd) projections.
There is no secret that OSU is the Saints farm team.

Wouldn't rule out a WR with either of our top 2 draft picks.

I hope not.

Chris Olave is the truth & that was a Dennis Allen pick.

I recall reading an article right before the 2022 draft that Sean implied he wouldn't target a WR until 2nd/3rd rounds.

Luckily no one was interested in his draft strategy

With the amount of meetings with WRs it’s looking very possible. If this guy drops to us for our first pick, I wouldn’t be surprised if they pick him.
I can’t imagine he’ll make it to pick 29 much less 40

If they really want him they will not hesitate to trade up. The same can be said for any other player they covet.

Is this the year to covet a player enough to spend additional draft capital on him by moving up for a player? We are not one player away from a championship at the moment and I hope we stand pat and take BPA. Or they could move down and get additional draft picks to reload with. But, everyone knows that we don't operate that way.

Yup. That's why I expect them to move up at some point.
