I like this alot, I think this guy could help us greatly at RB. I'd rather have a defensive draft first, but it's still good news.

If he slips, he'll likely be the BPA at 24.

I doubt he slips but you have to consider all circumstances.

Assuming he slipped I'd guess we should take him there? I mean, we all want defense in the 1st round, but no way this guy slips to our spot right?

True Dat, But I never thought Duece McAllister was gonna slip to us as far as he did either. There is only 1 offensive player I would even consider in the first and that's Mark Ingram and that's only if the guys I want at LB and DE are gone.

Yep Danno, unlikely but you never know. If he's still there I think the Saints would be smart to get him. I think the Pats would get him before us though if Miami passes. I don't think them bringing him in is a smoke screen either, he's a good back and could help immediately.

With the pass rush talent available in the late first round of this draft, my preference would be to get someone who can get to the opposing QB, but Ingram would be a great player to get.

like everyone is saying he won't fall this far, he could be traded to us if thats what the front office is dealing up. it would have to be a draft pick trade only if theres no cba in tack. imo its the only way he falls from new england or miami etc, anything's possible but we need defence with 1st pick.

This guy has top 10 talent and if he drops to 24 the Saints will jump all over him. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Saints trade with Miami if it didn't cost too much.

Being able to have a dominate running game would certainly help the defense. The real question is do you want to take the ball out of Brees's hands 20 times a game to give it to him? But if you thought play action worked good with Reggie Bush... you ain't seen nothin...
