A more effective way of doing a Saints mock draft is to find the players with the most injury concerns and call it a day.

Grabbed two, young tackles and a guard to add some competition at offensive line. Grabbed a QB of the future to make Carr more expendable moving forward. Got a young RB to add some speed and depth at that position. Added two DT’s and an EDGE. Got a LB’er for depth. Feel like this wouid address all our most glaring issues.

Re: 2024 Mock Draft
 
Round 1: pick #14- Fashanu OT Penn State

Round2: pick #45- T'Vondre Sweat DT Texas

After that, it's anybody's guess as to how our big board lines up. I can't imagine sitting through the 3rd & 4th rounds without a selection. We'll probably use the later round picks to move back into the top 100. I want to concentrate on the big uglies again. I know it's not sexy, but it is absolutely necessary, after so many swing and misses by our FO the past few years. We need starters and depth desperately all along the trenches.

I want to add a FS to groom, LB, slot corner, and WR if at all possible with role players and starters from the draft this year.

Rugby Saint II 04-15-2024 01:51 PM

Re: 2024 Mock Draft
 
Maybe Seat's DUI will cause him to slide down the draft boards. We could pick him up in the middle rounds cheap. If only we had a 3rd & 4th rounder this year. I'm pretty sure that we'll be packaging those later round picks to move up for a player like him that falls in the draft.

And for god's sake don't trade away next years picks for another developmental player! :argue:

SmashMouth 04-21-2024 09:28 AM

Re: 2024 Mock Draft
 
What are the 1st round grade players this year? There can't be 32. If it's less than 14, Saints should move down and get more picks.

K Major 04-21-2024 10:38 AM

Re: 2024 Mock Draft
 
Agreed on ADDING more picks. Copy cat league. Do what the contenders do every single year.

Take the RAVENS for example. It is indeed better to hit on 4 out of 12 vs 2 picks out of 6. THAT is how you continuously replenish your roster with YOUNGER, cheaper talent & maintain cap health.

Saints have a OLD roster & that “win now” philosophy is long gone.
Add more talent so you can truly compete in a couple of years.

K Major 04-21-2024 05:55 PM

Re: 2024 Mock Draft
 
In two short seasons, the champs (KC) were able to solidify those trenches.

Trey Smith - G (rd 6)
Wayna Morris - T (rd 3)
Creed Humphrey C (rd 2)

Saints scouts need to to hit on those picks. We need 3 quality starters in 2024.

Any reason in particular?

He has good measurables, a PFF rating of 89.9, and a ras score of 9.80. That’s pretty good numbers to be there to select at 52, if he’s not taken earlier.

Pretty Boy Peyton as our current DE...sure doesn't feel like he was worth his draft position out of U of H.

Saints have until 5/2 to decide on whether or not they pick up his fifth year option.

What would you do:bng:?

I guess it depends on who they pick up in the draft and UDFA. It does not feel like they should, though.

Nope but it helps.

Remember that Saints 08-09 squad?

Stichcomb was the highest (2nd rd) draft selection on the entire o line.

Goodwin, Evans, Nicks, Bushrod were 4th, 5th rd dawgs along with good coaching.

Good coaching has probably been the issue
Outside of Onyemata and to a far lesser degree Davison have they really coached anyone up in a decade?

Hendrickson maybe, but he was a 3rd round pick and has probably played to the level expected.

Hence one of my questions on first round grade prospects... just how many are there? 14, 20, 10? In other words, do second rounds prospects begin at round one pick 14? If it does, then trade back. If it doesn't ... maybe someone good falls to us at 14.

And that was with the defense.....the O line regressed every year under Douggie Marrone. :roll:.
