Walter thinks otherwise:

New Orleans Saints: Khairi Fortt, ILB, California: B Grade
This is a solid pick. I thought Khairi Fortt would be chosen around this range, and he also fills a need for the Saints. David Hawthorne hasn't played well for them over the past couple of seasons, so it's possible that Fortt could step in as the starter in 2015.

How about using our extra 5th rounder to trade back into the 4th for a guy like Yankey?

Ramon Antonio Vargas ‏@RVargasAdvocate 20s
...Sat out 12, in '13, started in 9 games. Missed time at end of season with biceps injury. Nonetheless, a Butkus Award semifinalist (more)


Jeff Duncan ‏@JeffDuncan_ 59s
Fortt is the 15th rated OLB by 2014 NFL Draft - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com . Strengths are range, pass coverage. He's essentially a poor man's Ryan Shazier.


Ramon Antonio Vargas ‏@RVargasAdvocate 2m
Man, per NFL.com - Official Site of the National Football League , Fortt tore his ACL in 9th grade but it wasn't an issue until his first year at Cal after transfer in '12...


Not sure with this at all

[lee909]

Dont like this at all,would have taken Tripp or Jones first

Mitch: it seems like a throw away pick when there were similar talents that could help 2014 instead of having to redshirt.

Mighty; I trust the Saints staff more than what any fan says about the draft

This has to be who Rob wanted and he got him

To correct, K. Fortt's ligament he tore in ninth grade and didn't have surgery on until '12 reportedly was one that stabilized the patella.

Mitch: I am with you I trust they have done their research and I know they understand football 10 million times better than I do. It does't mean I have to like it. I still give an A+ for this draft. Fortt has major upside if he had been playing with a bad ACL.

4th round is right. He is probably a few rounds higher without the injuries. I'll take that chance any day of the week.
