great analysis and picks, even the kicker. It wasn't Serna but I'm happy about it all.

Nicks: B...what a beast, youtube his name, with proper coaching he could be a great RT.

Kicker: F...could have picked him up in FA and drfted an OLB like Highsmith.

he would've been drafted lol. the kicker.

I love Ellis and give the pick a A+.

I think Porter is a nice pick, I would rate it a solid B because of some questions about his toughness, the ?'s about his tackling are silly, he had 80+tackles last season.

Pressley is another young beast in the middle to add PRESSURE to the opposing OB which we all know will go a long way in improving our secondary. I rate the pick a solid B.

Nicks is a beast, he is 6'5" and a house of a man, if he is coached up he could be our starting RT this season, I grade it an A.

Mehlhaff, I rate this an F, I think we could have scooped him in FA. This pick should have been an OLB or S.

Just my 2 cents....Steveo

i am very happy with this draft...
the kicker is questionable, but besides that i think the saints came away with possibly 3-5 players that could be starting by the end of the year (ellis, porter, pressley, nicks and mehlhaff)...ellis and nicks will start by the end of the year

If the kicker turns out to end our inconsistency since we let Carney leave, then I'll give it a B. No one was suprised that he was drafted, just that he was the first kicker off the board.

No ones jog this year. Stinch is a UFA after next year. Lets see what happens. Besides I see him doing time at OG also. Next year at the latest I think we will see the OL suffled around. Good pick
