Draft Week - Final Picks

saintsfan1976 · 04-24-2023, 11:17 AM

It's draft week!! With 8 picks in 7 rounds, the Saints have the ammo to draft impact players at key positions, even if (when) the team has to trade up.

That said, let's have some fun. Give us your picks, however you see them panning out, and we'll see who did best.

Uzomah - DE
Tillman - WR
Shakesphere (Spears) - RB
Mauch - G/T
Ekiyor - IOL (depth)
6-8 (no clue here

) ...

My only prediction is that our first pick which will be higher than #29 will be a player we didn't bring in for a site visit.

Expect the unexpected…🙃

The only guess I have is that the Saints will go from having eight picks in this draft to five.

Yup. I can easily see that.

Trade-up scenarios make me nervous AF. Wish we could hijack the war room and make the picks, let Mickey and co. have the weekend off!

I'm eager to see what Loomis and Ireland will do without Payton's input. I actually have more confidence in the draft process without Sean than with him.

I was happy with last year’s draft and UDFA signings. We have 4 players expected to be big contributors.
