Players Saints looking at in the Senior Bowl...
Here's a list of players they were seen with or showing interest....

Defense:
Patrick Lee (CB, Auburn)

Offense:
Martin Rucker (TE, Missouri)
Brad Cottam (TE, Tennessee)
Mike Pollak (C, Arizona State)
Donnie Avery (WR, Houston)
Dorien Bryant (WR, Purdue)
Eddie Royal (WR, VA Tech)

Special Teams:
Alex Serna (K, Oregon State)
Mike Dragosavich (P, North Dakota State)

Wow, from a fan stand-point you would think we would look at more D players. Think again. Now, I bet theirs other D guys were looking at not listed but I'm kinda surprised.

do not take it to heart. we did not draft a single guy they listed last year.

And we see how that worked out...

Seriously though,
Of the three projected picks they showed for the Saints in 07 the only one I wish we would have considered was Jacoby Jones. Kolb and Harrell eh...

3 More WR's and 2 more TE's on the list. Uh-oh.....

Could be a decoy. If we can see who they are interested in so can the other 31 teams. Then again maybe they plan on addressing the defensive needs through FA.

I think at #10 there are little smoke screens... Pick the BPA.

I like Eddie Royal. If he last til the third round, I'd consider him. It's a deep class of receivers this year.

As long as they take an offensive guy LATE in the draft I will be happy. Defense is our biggest hole.

Defense is a freakin' chasm.

Then don't keep a loaded gun in your house!!!

I read this on someone else's thread (and I agree) that we may pick a RB/WR as high as the third.

I love Deuce just as much as the next guy but he's got mountains to climb before he makes it back to his old form. Stecker's not a bruiser and PT remains to be proven.
