Why take a player that would have most likely been there as a UDFA

Re: Day 3 NFL Live Draft Thread
 
Oh we'll, wasted half my day on poor draft, Loomis and Payton must've taken the weekend off cause not one of these players worth anything unless they stay off IR (which I doubt)

I mean take a flier on him in the 7th if you are that set on him but come on... no one knew he was even alive.

We can't draft good players after 3 rounds(except Colston). Rufus for example didnt pan out or needs development.

I think he'd have been an unsigned UDFA at that.

The one pick I don't like, at all.

Walters Take:

Quote:

New Orleans Saints: Tavon Rooks, OT, Kansas State: C- Grade
Tackle depth makes sense, but I did not have Tavon Reeks listed as a draftable prospect. If this were the fifth round, I'd give the Saints a Millen, but there are no blatant reaches in the middle of Round 6.

Seriously, how many do you think will be on the team in the next 3 yrs

Euphoria 05-10-2014 04:11 PM

Re: Day 3 NFL Live Draft Thread
 
only 1

lee909 05-10-2014 04:11 PM

Re: Day 3 NFL Live Draft Thread
 
Taking a shot about how stupid it is having the draft in May

The league trying to say teams like it,Mayock saying everyone hates it and that its unfair on everyone

I like the other picks more than you did, but you're right, this pick was gawd-awful.

I'd fire someone for this selection.

Four

Cooks
SJB
Fortt
Powell

and maybe Sunseri as a special teams ace/captain.

Re: Day 3 NFL Live Draft Thread
 
The NFL wanted to screw teams over moving the draft down. It gave those GMs more time to think about drafting players higher than they would. The thing here I'm getting is we are behind the curve with SF and Seattle, they seem to be on to something before we figure it out and when we do the pack we lead also do. Everyone now wants receivers and oline.

Separate issues brother.

1. Trade for picks is over.

2. WR/TE is up in the air.

3. Rescinding the tag would be the only way he goes somewhere else this season. That would be a cut bait scenario.

#2 doesn't involve lawyers. The CBA has a defined dispute resolution system. The only reason a judge heard the bounty gate case is because Goodell was his own appellate which is bullsh1t.

And why is Powell on IR again?! :rolleyes:

And here is what Fortt had to say about his injury:

Quote:

Did you get a lot of questions about your injury history? Do you think teams were past those issues?
“I don’t feel like I was really injury-prone, the only real injury I had was in ninth grade. I had to get to get surgery on my knee in the 2012 season and I didn’t tear anything, I didn’t tear a meniscus or ACL or anything, they just had to put another tendon in my kneecap to make sure it was stable. The doctor said I could have played with it but if I wanted to have a long career in the NFL that I would probably get the surgery so it wouldn’t happen again, my knee wouldn’t pop out again. As long as I stay stretched, do some yoga and drink some water, I’ll be good.”

There were reports that you tore that ligament in ninth grade, was that accurate?
“I didn’t tear a ligament, I just partially dislocated my kneecap so it would always slip out just a little bit. It never happened during any football games through my high school and college career up to spring practice where it came out a little bit. I still walked off the field, I was fine. I was about to start practicing again but the doctors thought it was a little loose so they tightened it down with another Achilles tendon from a cadaver and now I’m fine.”

IR is how Payton stashes players he doesn't want on the PS.

We already have two gunners, no way he beat out the safeties we do have ,plus we have too many defensive backs. Corey white, Patrick Robinson, champ bailey, Kennan Lewis, jaruis Byrd, k vaccaero, r bush, rod sweeting and Trevino wade

Katherine Terrell ‏@Kat_Terrell 1m
Khairi Fortt will play inside
Payton - He was a good player not on a good defense. Should be able to play special teams.

Ramon Antonio Vargas ‏@RVargasAdvocate 1m
Fortt: ILB candidate, says coach Sean Payton. Good player, good speed, athleticism, can play ST, on not a good D.

Mike Triplett ‏@MikeTriplett 51s
#Saints Payton said he sees 4th-round pick Fortt as weak ILB candidate.

Ramon Antonio Vargas ‏@RVargasAdvocate 1m
Payton on Sunseri: ACL repair went will. Can participate in OTAs, minicamp. W/out contact, won't be a problem.

Katherine Terrell ‏@Kat_Terrell 1m
Ronald Powell will play outside linebacker.

Katherine Terrell ‏@Kat_Terrell 51s
Tavon Rooks, who played tackle, will stay at that position.

Mike Triplett ‏@MikeTriplett 42s
#Saints Payton said Ronald Powell could play OLB (Sam). Rooks offensive tackle.

Asked Payton if anyone was drafted today primarily bc of special teams. Said defintiely a factor, esp. with Sunseri. #Saints

Not deep draft at center position, Payton said. Handful of centers

Payton wants immediate improvement on special teams and with this kids speed, he could develop into a nice gunner.

WillSaints81 05-10-2014 04:34 PM

Re: Day 3 NFL Live Draft Thread
 
Looks like Payton maybe coming up with an alternative to the oline by giving Brees better field positions with STs.

#saints made 'real good progress' during draft, but these 2-3 hours are important in UDFA, Payton said.


Mike Triplett ‏@MikeTriplett 1m
#Saints Payton declined to say whether there's a chance they'll sign veteran C Jonathan Goodwin.

Re: Day 3 NFL Live Draft Thread
 
SP just called my 8 yr old son Justin because he did very well playing OG/OT last year. Loves the fact that he can play both positions. UDFA here we come!
