2024 Senior Bowl - Prospects To Watch

Is anyone going to the Senior bowl?

I think drafting another o- lineman early on should be a no brainer.

Collectively this group didn’t perform well. MCcoy graded (79.4 per PFF) out as of best, while Ruiz graded as the worst (51.2).

Now with the uncertainty with Ramz, you gotta get more re enforcements in those trenches.

Kamara and Jamaal had very few run lanes.

Wish we were in position to grab Joe Alt. Would love to see us move back and really attack adding players to the offensive line. I’d say let Cam Erving replace Ram for now, grab a tackle to replace Peat and then draft a guard to put on the left side. I’d be drafting offensive and defensive line exclusively.

Can we draft a coach?

If your staff hasn't already got all the information on the draft prospects, you need to hire a new scouting department. One glorified flag football game shouldn't be a way to set up your draft board.

Saints should also scout the CB position.

I believe there is a good chance Lattimore is traded this off season.

That would sting 🐝.

I wish we could draft a coach but we haven't drafted that well recently. So, there's that to think about.....

However, I don't know why we don't bring in some college coaches for a fresh perspective. It worked well in the past.

RT as well. Father Time has caught up with Cam Jordan so ... better grab an athletic DE while you're at it. Preferably within the first 3 rounds.

We've been swinging but we just keep on missing.

Davenport, Turner, Foskey...

I think we should try this for a change. Let's try to focus on getting someone that is HEALTHY and explosive for a change.

Agreed and acknowledged.

Needs: Defensive tackle
Needs: Offensive tackle
Needs: Guard
Biggest Need: Defensive end

I say DE as the "biggest" because we rank near the bottom half in lowest sacks & pass rush in 2023.

I'd target someone in the draft, however if the Saints opt in Free Agency I like Dorance Armstrong (Cowboys).

In the draft I like .. Jared Verse (Fl State)
