Dude....the title of the thread is "Saints will not draft a CB in the first round"!

I don't think Bob needs a forum bodyguard, okay. :(

Re: Saints will not draft a CB in the first round!!

The point of the whole post that i want to get across to you guys is simple.
There are no Cb's worth drafting at 10....and the Saints dont view CB as high of a need as some of us do.

-The Saints would love to get one of the DT's and that is no secret.
-If we are unable to move up and Rivers is there at 10, my BET is that he is the pick.
-In a worst case scenario, if all 3 are gone and the Saints cant find a partner to trade down with, the Saints will take an offensive player because that would be the highest ranked guys available.

Also, i would bet the farm that the Saints dont view CB as that high of need as some of the fans do. They are confident in MM's recovery. They like what they have seen in Randall Gay. The most talented CB they have on the roster is Usama Young and he should be further along in his development this year. And believe it or not, the FO really believes that David will be much better in year 2 than he was in year 1. So that gives you 4 solid CB's and 3 or them are under 26. Not to mention the fact that every CB in this draft has major issues.

-McKelvin----4 picks in 4 years????
-DRC---was not a shut down CB against weak competition and was at best a 3rd round pick before the offseason workouts.
Talib---to slow to play our style of defense.
Jenkins---Will not tackle and he has the mindset that he is a lot better than he really is and isnt exactly the most "coachable" guy out there.

I dont think that either of those 4 are worth the 10th pick of the draft and i would agree with the team if they went offense in the aforementioned scenario. Believe it if you want...it may not even matter if they are able to get one of the guys they really want. But i will tell you that my post is closer to the truth than any of the other speculation that has been brought up on this board.

I can agree with this post. I don't think any of the CB's are worth the #10 pick either. However...if we were to trade down, one of them could become the BPA & would become the pick. That was my point. Everything depends on what happens draft day.

Re: Saints will not draft a CB in the first round!!

I'll be in the minority and say that I believe one of the 3 top rated corners are worth at top 10 pick. If he becomes a solid player... who can argue with that. I believe one of them will be... but that's just me.

If you think about it, I'm getting a lot of leeway. I have 3 chances to be wrong. I'll take those chances. Honestly though I believe 2 of the top 3 corners will be very successful... I didn't want to cheat. :cool:

well the titles may be that, but the post said "at the 10 spot"

and i wasnt being his body guard (or a bell end) just pointing out what the post said

Re: Saints will not draft a CB in the first round!!

if we DON'T trade up, I think if McKelvin is on the board, he's our pick.

Re: Saints will not draft a CB in the first round!!

Rivers in the first and Tracy Porter,Cb, Indiana in the second?

Re: Saints will not draft a CB in the first round!!

One more thing, i never said that it was fact, and i am sorry if this offends anyone because i dont mean it that way, but i do think that it is worth more than most of the opinions on this board.

Re: Saints will not draft a CB in the first round!!

I am not being a forum bodyguard(I didn't even know you can hire bodyguards in this forum, I should have done that a long time ago) but Boba has been Nostradamus like creepy with his predictions. I have laughed at things he posted and then they came true. But anyway, I think we take Leodis Mckelvin before we would take offense. If Harper does get traded I would definitely look into Safety early in the draft.

i accept cash, check, and credit.. n im the best kinda bodyguard to have on this forum ;)
