Re: 2015 draft??
 

What the the mechanics if trading back? Getting another teams late first round pick and swapping of later round picks to move up the queue in the later rounds? For example we trade 13 and our 3rd round pick for another teams 25th pick and mid second round pick.

Re: 2015 draft??
 

I think he may go around the early to mid twenties. If we traded down what kind of comp. would we get trading down in that type of range?

Re: 2015 draft??
 

I imagine we could get a 3rd round pick for that.

Sorry. Must have posted around the same time.

Re: 2015 draft??
 

If we do that, I would actually prefer Mckenney but if he's gone,then I would like Perryman.

Re: 2015 draft??
 

But Perryman is a proven quantity in pass coverage, something the Saints LB corps is lacking...

Re: 2015 draft??
 

I know, but McKinney is a big run stuffing LB that I think would pair well with Lofton. I really like Perryman though,I just want some big run stuffing ILB's on this defense. Ideally ,i would love to draft both of them!

Re: 2015 draft??
 

If we didn't need a NT so bad, thats the 2 I would want also. McKinney,Perryman,Lofton,Ediboli, with Jr. on passing downs and Harrelson and Powell at swingman. Instant improvement. Maybe we trade someone for more picks, I can only hope.

Too many not taking notice of Kendrick

Eric Kendricks, ILB/OLB, UCLA
Height: 6-0.
Weight: 230.
Projected 40 Time: 4.69.
Projected Round (2015): 1-2.
12/13/14: Kendricks has 139 tackles, 8.5 tackles for a loss, two sacks, two passes broken up, three interceptions and one force fumble this year. The senior is a sideline-to-sideline run-defender who covers a ton of ground. He also is an asset in pass coverage as he guards some receivers well in man coverage and does very well in zone. In the NFL, Kendricks should be a three-down starter.

The senior was all over the field against Virginia to open 2014. The big plays he made led to 14 points from the Bruins' defense. Kendricks stripped a receiver of the ball deep in UCLA territory, and a teammate scooped up the fumble to return it for a touchdown. While the quarterback was flooded with defenders on the next drive, Kendricks had tight coverage on the running back and was able to undercut the throw to pick it off and run 37 yards to take it to the house. Kendricks totaled 16 tackles, two passes broken up, the forced fumble and the interception against Virginia. He also was impressive against Texas (11 tackles), Arizona State (10 tackles), Washington (13 tackles), USC (14 tackles, 1 INT) and Stanford (11 tackles).

8/23/14: Kendricks played well in 2013 with 105 tackles, four tackles for a loss and an interception. He was third in the Pac-12 in tackles. Kendricks is an instinctive defender who can defend sideline-to-sideline.

Kendricks was a backup until a breakout 2012 season in which he led the Pac-12 in tackles. Kendricks had 149 tackles with six tackles for a loss, two sacks, four passes broken up, two forced fumbles and one blocked kick. His instincts were excellent as he did a great job of reading and reacting. Thanks to a disruptive defensive line and star outside linebacker Anthony Barr, Kendricks was able to make plays off of them.

Kendricks is getting good preparation from a UCLA coaching staff under Jim Mora, Jr. that has a lot of pro experience. While Kendricks plays middle linebacker for the Bruins, he would have to move to outside linebacker in the NFL if he can't add weight.

Personal: Economics major. Son of Marv Kendricks and Yvonne Thagon. Eric Kendricks is the younger brother of Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Mychal Kendricks, a second-round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft out of California.

We exchanged first round picks and traded our third round pick to move up seven spots...

This should help though it's no absolute...
