Didn't Jeremy tear up his ACL? I would take my chances with a younger Joe Morgan who is coming off the same type injury. As for Grimes ... love the physicality he brings to the position.

We need road graders on the O-Line. Keep Drew clean and consistent running.

Re: Saints Take Brandin Cooks WR in Latest 2014 Mock Draft

We were desperate for Outside Linebacker last draft and didn't really draft one for the 34, lost our second best FA in early camp, traded for an OLB who's got a torn pec and staring at 30...

How do we not have a need for LB as a top three rounds priority?!?

We've got a WR corps of Colston, Stills, Moore, Meachem and Toon with Joe Morgan recovering from an injury; how many teams are that deep at WR from top to bottom in the league...

We've got to shore up the LBers and we've got to continue to get Vaccaro some help in the secondary with Harper and Jenkins needing to be upgraded and likely gone from a salary cap cost perspective...

What's Vilma's status?

Have you seen the hands by Landry and Beckem from LSU? It would be more logical to steal them in the 2/3 rd. Landry for sure will fall into the 3rd and he is a beast. We need a CB or Oline in the first. We will be losing Strief and BDP unless they settle for a cheap contract(which I doubt).

I think OLB can be dealt with later in the draft or in FA. Haralson did really well until he got hurt late in the season. Galette is a beast and Butler will be back from injury. As backups we have Johnson and Dawson. I think depth is really good at OLB. Oline,CB, WR and Safety I think is a bigger need. Moore will probably be released and Colston/Meachem is 412 years old.

With you on Stills, Toon had a year and showed me nothing at all.
