Wat does Jason David do to our draft?

Someone, (sorry I cant recall and will look back to find it) posted an article about Harris singing the praises of the treatment he received from the Saints. I certainly could see him sneaking into round 1 as he has been making a fast and furious late rise up draft boards in the last week or so. Personally, I would rather hold off and try to Buster Davis later on because he has more upside. But with Harris, you know what you are getting in a consistent run stopping MLB.

I figured this would occur. not sure if Beacham was the best choice but i had a feeling we would be getting a reciever since we acquired David. Now that we have picked a WR....i hope we can find some defensive studs in the lattaer rounds. oh and a good backup QB.

maybe the need to draft a young qb should happen next year, as the talent pool next year will be deep at qb.

it's not the first time (see Will Smith and Deuce McAllister, oh, and Reggie Bush)

Side note: I read a quote from the Saints front office that they were going to take Demeco Ryans, LB Alabama in last year's draft, but the Texans beat them to it one spot ahead with the 1st pick of the 2nd round. We ended up trading down and getting Harper. I like Harper, but imagine the NFC Defensive Rookie of the year who had 160 tackles last year! That would have been the best draft ever...
