Are you serious?

This year's DT class is really really really good, and there are so many good rookies that some of those potentially great future DTs will undoubtedly drop down to the later rounds.

Mark my words, there'll be some very good/great future DTs coming out from this year's draft, who aren't necessarily picked in the first 3 rounds.

Yes! That's what I'm hoping for.

Sorry, but I don't see it. I know, as there always is, a few diamonds in the rough but I guess that's why I coach from the couch and not the sidelines.

Yeah, I'm not a professional "talent spotter" or a scout nor do I posses the qualities which would make me either one. But, the buzz word during the whole combine coverage was how talented and deep the DT class was, so I'm mostly going by that.

I'd really like for the Saints to get Derek Wolfe and possibly Akiem Hicks in maybe the 4th, 5th or 6th rounds, but I know that might be hoping for too much. At least Hicks might have some stories to share with Johnson about the ol' Canada.
