This looks fun as hell. I just wish I knew enough about more college players to even put in a halfway decent prediction past round three. So I’ll just watch you guys.

C'mon jnormand. It's for fun! I guarantee most of us won't get more than 1, or 2 picks right.

I think last year was the first season in years - maybe ever - that the Saints drafted the guy I wanted!

Trade Predictions:

We will trade up.

We will draft a player from Ohio State.

We will draft at least one oft-injured player.

I'm kidding... not really... maybe a little. I do like my odds!

My prediction is Abdul Carter falls to the pats at four and we trade up to get him

Alternate prediction- we trade down and grab another second and also trade back up into the second for a total of a first and three seconds for our first four picks

NT Grant - LB Schwesinger - OG Ratledge - RB Tuten - WR Lacy - S Ransam - CB Harris - OC/G Cox - TE Runyon.

I've always hated draft speculation, but with the total lack of comprehension of the competition displayed thus far, I believe I may have a reasonable chance chance of winning. Just kidding ... kind of. :D
