Re: 2014 NFL Draft
I agree. I suspect the Saints will pick up a ILB early in the draft. I think this is a "prove it" year for Lofton. He's a big cap hit and if he doesn't perform up to the dollars, I think he'll be gone.

Re: 2014 NFL Draft
I don't know about Moncrief. The name doesnt say number 1 receiver to me, and I feel we need someone who is.
The names to me that stand out Watkins(we won' get him) Benjamin(forget the bad hands as he has Winston throwing to him and Winston is a read option) Cooks(even though he's not the fit for us) The Decker-like players Evans Matthews Robinson Those with a number 1 upside but bust potential Lee Richardson The safest bet Beckham Jr, but he isnt going to be a Calvin or a Decker, he's a slot guy and would be more of a great no.2 contributor. If Colston's not in the slot now he could be what we need. But we need to have another stud on this team besides Brees and Graham. |

Decker, without Manning, might be allowed to hold his jock... And if bloodlines mean anything, Matthews is cousin to...Jerry Rice... This report best encapsulates Jordan Matthews... Jordan Matthews | The Sideline View |
