second round - what ya want?

A few players I am enamored with:

Trent Murphy, DE/OLB, Stanford - I don't know about ya'll but it would be nice to keep adding young guys on D. I like Galette and Haralson, but we still don't really know anything about Butler or Rufus Johnson. If you've ever lamented the fact that we gave up on Rob Ninkovich too soon this is the kind of guy you want to see in a Saints uniform.

Carlos Hyde, RB, Ohio St. or Jeremy Hill, RB, LSU - We didn't pick up Ingram's option and it seems likely he could be gone in 2015 barring a breakout season that forces us to keep him. I've seen both guys play a ton and would love to have either one.

Jordan Matthews, WR, Vanderbilt or Allen Robinson, WR, Penn St. - Why aren't these two more hyped? I don't know. They're both big, fast and polished. Colston clones, both of them. We did just draft a WR but stranger things have happened.

Travis Swanson, C, Arkansas - I'm back to convinced he is the guy we need. He may not be the absolute center prospect there, but he's probably the best for us. Smart, tough, dependable and was a team captain for two years.

Ra'shede Hageman, DT, Minnesota - His scouting reports are almost identical to the kinds of things that were said about Akiem Hicks when we drafting him. He's huge, could play inside or outside, can rush the passer and play the run.

Re: second round - what ya want?

I'd love to get Swanson in the second. Then I believe our offence would be pretty much set (I expect us to sign a great RB as an UDFA).

Wouldn't be upset if we went with a CB thou.

Re: second round - what ya want?

All of the players Jack Vegas mentioned I would love to have, except for Swanson. Don't get me wrong, I like Swanson, but just not in the second round.

Some other prospects I'd really like us to take:

- Pierre Desir, CB, Lindenwood
- Stanley Jean-Baptiste, CB, Nebraska
- Davante Adams, WR, Fresno St
- Cody Latimer, WR, Indiana
- Jeremiah Attaochu, OLB/ILB (can play either), Georgia Tech
- Kyle Van Noy, OLB/ILB (can play either), BYU

CB. The 2nd Round is too high to draft Swanson and we already drafted a NT last year. We need a CB to replace Champ and Robinson when they're gone. I would prefer either Desir or Gaines.

Re: second round - what ya want?

Demarcus Lawrence is my favorite pass rusher left. Pierre Desir, Bashaud Breeland, Marcus Roberson and Jaylen Watkins are the best fits at CB imo. I still see us getting a RB after not picking up Ingram's option. Ka'Deem Carey, Terrence West, Storm Johnson, Charles Sims, Jerick McKinnon, and Dri Archer are all great options in the 4th or possibly 3rd rd if we trade up. As far as Center, Travis Swanson is my favorite prospect but I see us either going for Stork later or sticking with Tim Lelito.

Re: second round - what ya want?

I would not be surprised in the least to see a center get picked by us in the second. I think we'd have to trade up again to have a shot at Desir, Jean-Baptiste, Van Noy, and even Latimer or Hageman. I think BPA when our pick rolls around will likely be a center on our big board.

Re: second round - what ya want?

Thats easy... I have a Nine player cloud that i would like us to target.


CB - Stanley Jean-Baptiste - Nebraska
CB - Pierre Desir - Lindenwood
CB - Phillip Gaines - Rice
OLB - Jeremiah Attaochu - Georgia Tech
OLB - Kyle Van Noy - BYU
ILB - Christian Jones - Florida St.
WR - Allen Robinson - Penn St.
WR - Davante Adams - Fresno St.
WR - Cody Latimer - Indiana


There would be other guys i'd be ok with as well, but these are the players id target. I would wait to target RB's & OL(besides Center) on day 3(rds. 4-7)

Re: second round - what ya want?

I want Jean-Baptiste or Desir. No center. Don't think Attaochu falls to us.
