Now, I hope we go DL/LB with pick 1. Then, one of the top three TEs will be there at 41.

I only have one LB on my "mock" with 1st round grades and that's Jack Campbell from Iowa.

Who do you have?

Honestly, I’m not qualified enough to offer a name for LB. If I was going to look I’d start with the best/most talented SEC linebackers on my board (showing my bias). But I’ve not delved deep enough. It’s more an idea of getting a pass rush or line stuffing player on D being our first need.

We’ve thrown safety’s or CBs in the run stuffing/blitz support role a lot. We’ve had trouble with drafting the “LB” position for a while now. That’s always bothered me about Payton. They were Either drafting guys that didn’t fit the scheme we ran or focusing on large players.

Fortunately, Unlike the bad luck we’ve had getting WRs from other teams, we’ve done great getting LBs from other teams (jets!).

Before DCarr arrived, I'd say pull the trigger if you think he's your guy.

Now ... not so much. Would be completely shocked if the Saints draft a QB.

But hey, I've been wrong before :bng:.

I can see it at #40. I think they may move up from #29 a few spots to target a player they love.

It’s tough not to like him. But what if we draft him and Carr has a great year? Three years from now we may be very happy with Carr. That could suck. Good problem to have I guess.
