John Jenkins, NT, Georgia

cost us three players not a smart move with all the talent that is still on the board.

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

Well really only 2 right? Ivory for the 4th was an even swap, then we added another 4th rounder to move up to the 3rd.

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

Ivory was a liability...he was hurt more than healthy...I don't understand you ppl and afraid of the trade. We needed to plug this position and this was the best POSITION PLAYER for that. I think it's a GREAT and BALLSY move by our FO.

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

Ivory is gone
Jets fourth is gone
our fourth is gone

that is how i count it

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

Here is the math for the slow people:

The Saints traded RB Chris Ivory to the New York Jets for pick 106. The Saints then traded picks 106 and 109 to the Miami Dolphins for the 82nd pick to draft Georgia’s DT John Jenkins

Get it? Got it? Good.

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

Sounds like a bit of a project. Has a huge upside as well as being just plain huge. If he can get some decent DL coaching (Did we get a new DL coach this year? We should have.) he should be able to spell Bunkley and let Hicks go crazy on the end. Still would have rather had Brandon Williams, but I'm okay with JJ for now and resting a bit easier with the Vaccaro pick.

Okay, so far a safety, an OT and an NT. Where are we going next?

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

My guess, Seer1, after all the D we just picked...Sean will be grabbing a WR.

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

There's also that Tulane QB.

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

OL OT/TE ILB OLB DE CB. there are some nice ones late to take a risk on. this is a very deep draft. on that can load up back ups with

with ivory gone they may go rb in late. i am betting UDFA here

developmental QB i would be very surprised since we brought two in already but i trust our offense brain trust much more than the defensive ones right now.

Re: Saints move up to get John Jenkins
 

I think that's why we grabbed Watson TE, no?
