SportsNation NFL Mock Draft

i understand and agree with you LOE but everyone seems to think that we MUST draft Defense and we dont.. there are very few players every year who have the ability to just come in and be a huge factor.. there are about 4-5 corners in this draft who have the chance to be good players but that doesnt mean that they will come in and set the league on fire... if we did get a corner.. you can bet that if he was starting, every single team we play will be throwing his way...

wow.. did u even read my post...

yes brown is uncomfortable at LT.. he even said so himself... and yes he went to a probowl.. and it is my belief that he was voted in b/c our offense was in beastmode in 2006 and he got the benefit of that...

Wasting a #10 pick on a kid who might not play for two years and then be a free agent after his 3rd, possibly fourth season just doesn't make sense to me.

this right here shows me u dont know much about what u are talking about...
first round picks generally sign 6-7 year deals...

btw, Clady played for who? Boise State? Not really stoked about letting a guy who has virtually played against noone protect our franchise qb's backside

yea b/c every great NFL player came from a big time college... wow..

You're going to take a top 10 pick on a OT he damn well better be a franchise type OT and Clady is certainly not that

and you know this b/c he played at boise st.? oh wait.. maybe its cuz he isnt projected to be in the top 5? please... 30 NFL teams attended the Boise St Pro day to check him out, and he turned in arguably the best OT workout so far this year... but he isnt a franchise left tackle, according to you.. maybe its cuz ur a scout.. who knew?!!?

How would taking him be a wasted pick? Games are won in the trenches and the kid may turn out to solve your RT position for 10+ years.

Clady is fine with me.

actually i think it makes plenty of sense.. Clady has the talent and experience to come in an play right away at LT allowing the saints to move jammal brown back to his natural position at RT. Brown has always been uncomfortable at LT, even in his probowl year but he really struggled last year for what reason i dont know.. an injury maybe.. im not sure.. but he had problems, getting multiple false start calls at critical times.. and u could just see it coming too.. the saints would be moving down the field.. there goes the whistle. false start #70..

and stinch.. well that dude hasnt really done anything since hes been in the league.. didnt play the first 2 seasons.. then finally gets in and plays descent.. his run blocking is pretty horrible though and brees is always being pressured from his side.. i can only say that he has the talent of a backup and thats what he should be...

now im not saying that Clady will be a beast but he will be able to play right away, which you cant say for all the corners and it will help our offense

yes i know we have a good offense and we score alot of points but you cant be complacent where we are at on offense either.... theres always room for improvement on both sides on the ball and adding a real LT will make our good offensive line even better giving brees even more time and allowing him to be the accurate passer that he is...
