Me, too, but why fixated on Perryman? You're persuaded he can help fix our run defense, too?

I prefer McKinney and/or Anthony. I like your hope to totally revamp LB corps with multiple LB picks, even two ILBs possibly.

WR KEVIN WHITE WVU
RB DUKE JOHNSON MIAMI
S ANTHONY HARRIS VIRGINIA
CB CAM THOMAS WESTERN KENTUCKY
OT ERIC LEFELD CINCINNATI
DT DERRICK LOTT TENNESSEE-CHATTANOOGA
OLB TONY WASHINGTON OREGON

Fire anyone who drafts a RB in the first 3 rounds.

If I'm fixated on Perryman, it's because I believe he's a unique MLB that can give that position for the Saints a skill set it hasn't had in years...

Now, I'm cautiously optimistic about what I'm seeing of Anthony, who'd sure be there for after the first round...

And I guess there's still questions whether McKinney is a two-down thumper or a three down linebacker...

If he's a two-down guy like the ones we have now, no way I want to spend a first rounder on a guy who's limited on snaps...

No. 013 (R1, 13) LB Shaq Thompson, Washington; 6' 2", 231 lbs

No. 044 (R2, 12) LB Stephone Anthony, Clemson; 6' 2", 245 lbs

No. 075 (R3, 11) OG John Miller, Louisville; 6' 3", 315 lbs

No. 109 (R4, 13) DE Henry Anderson, Stanford; 6' 6", 285 lbs

No. 140 (R5, 12) LB Jake Ryan, Michigan; 6' 3", 238 lbs

No. 171 (R6, 11) OG Ben Beckwith, Mississippi St; 6' 4", 317 lbs

No. 205 (R7, 13) RB Michael Dyer, Louisville ~ Auburn; 5' 9", 215 lbs

Well, thinking Perryman isn't there in the second round, so I'd take the 1A option, Anthony, who's size at 6' 2" is a plus...

Would I trade back in the first for Perryman? Depends, and it'd be only for a second as I'd want to mass in the first 75 picks...

Anthony, Miller and Anderson move up a round as their values rise...

Grab a kid in the fifth that's a FOOTBALL PLAYER with Great Instincts and at the least will be a great special teamer; but I think he could be better than that...

I like Eli Harold from VA in round 2.

We need a tall, long-armed quick player who can be an OLB/SS/DE like Cam Chancellor.

I really think we could have this in Baptiste. He could easily be like Chancellor.

elite ability - but not physical enough IMO. should have stayed in school. the best way to neutralize him is to run right at him. Jr already fills that roll. god knows we do not need another one

he reminds me of a poor mans donte flowers. 4 or 5 games the talent makes you drool. the other games he is hard to see on the field, he looks like any other guy out there. i still do not see the love for Donte either

scares me is all i can say. huge roll of the dice in my book. plus i would not be surprised if he is there in the 3rd.

ok were is the love for drew? ROT please. the first two picks have some really good players that can be playing right out of camp or by mid season. plus there are more than a few that can slide inside to guard in a heart beat.

protect Drew in 2015 should be our battle cry
