Bye week draft thoughts

triman · 10-16-2013, 11:06 PM

Seeing that it is the bye week I thought it would be a good idea to talk about the draft.I surfed the web and compared several mocks.Looking at the players that might be available at the picks we have I came up with these picks.
Rd1 Trent Murphy OLB
RD2 Jackson Jeffcoat 34DE
RD3 Jarvis Landry Wr

Thoughts Ideas Opinions ?

These are the players that I liked in the range WE pick.
I think that we need in order of need Pass rushers,OL,and WR
CB is also a possibility

It would be nice to have a shutdown CB, but those aren't very common. The offensive line seems to be gelling, so I don't know about that, yet. Anyways, the draft is quite a while away, so it doesn't really need to be talked about yet.

Jesus, the bye week is worse than the offseason. >.>

Way to early; I can't even think about the draft right now. I'll leave that up to the thousands of disappointed Falcons fans...

New Orleans Saints: Scott Crichton, DE/OLB, Oregon State

The Saints had several holes to fill in the 2013 NFL Draft, so they weren't able to obtain a pass-rusher until the sixth round with Rufus Johnson. They'll probably need to do so earlier next April.

See this is wear i disagree with many pre drafts. i like the player but the saints really are not and have not as big of a need for pass rushers at the OLB/DE position as people swear they do. DE I think we have a a solid DE with another still developing. OLB is not an issue either when it comes to pass rush

So i am happy here but wishing for a more complete package

The Key need and biggest need is to address is pass coverage skill at OLB and ILB. Saints do not have the skill set to defend the mid range passing game. short slants and such are almost impossible to defend. it the 10 yard and 15 yard range were the team is glaring weak. Right now none of the ILB/OLB have shown the reaction skill set to shore up this weakness in the defense.

So pass rush is last on my list. Stout against the run and excels in pass coverage are the phrases i look for and watch for
