- - 2015 draft?? (https://blackandgold.com/saints/69583-2015-draft.html)

Re: 2015 draft??

No way Cobb makes it out of the first round.

Re: 2015 draft??

Best player available at every pick. Don't give any picks away to move up and no duplicate position picks. What about QB? We need help there too. I find it hard to believe Drew will stay competitive two more years.

Re: 2015 draft??

1st Vic Beasley OLB Clemson
2nd Vital Alexander G LSU
3rd Laken Tomlinson G Duke
4th Kevin White CB TCU

Early 4 round mock

Sign FA KJ Wright ILB Seattle

Re: 2015 draft??

If we move up again into the 1st round to select another "game breaking player" I'm going to become a Clowns fan. When has that EVER worked?

Re: 2015 draft??

We need D-line and O-line the most...

Don't let the door hit ya, where the good Lord split ya!

Re: 2015 draft??

lets see if the draft was today we would be picking 11 and the way injuries are piling up who knows. right now our best defense might just be a running game. so lets see odds are WR Kevin White wins out. praying for Brandon Scherff, OT, Iowa but if we pick this high i wish we would trade down, get picks and go with Benardrick McKinney. Yet again another BUT this is the saints we are talking about. But i am doing it

1 - 20 - Benardrick McKinney ILB Miss. St
Go with the freak and see what they do with him inside or outside. odds are outside and pray they do not screw up yet another LB

***Trade result *****

2a - Kevin Johnson CB Wake Forest
Also one of the top 3 man cover CB.

2b - Jake Fisher, ROT Oregon
Say hello to the new ROT for the NFL to stop the dual speed rushers out to stop the pass happy rules that are the CFL oppsss sorry NFL. size athletic and solid all around blocker.

3c - Hroniss Grasu, C, Oregon - experience in a fast-paced zone based offense.

********

4- 107 - Vince Mayle WR Washington State
Here is a nice basketball to WR project player. good speed but solid quickness and hopes. big improvements all around this year with the kid

5- 139 - A.J. Johnson ILB Tennesse
how far does he drop and is he the next ILB to fall out of the draft?

6- 171 - ?
7-203 - ?

Jake Smith OG/OC Louisville
Tech sound can play all three inside positions. Boring pick but i like these type picks. nothing wrong with a solid swing man on the inside

Maurice Falls OLB East Craolina
what freaks rise and what player drops like a rock? Right now he is dropping like a rock. lets see if he can recover from preseason over hype. he is a freak, 6' 3" 247 4.47 ???? say what? vertical 36" squat 645 and bench press 425 pounds. does he have what it takes upstairs to become a OLB in the NFL?

Couple of players i really like and fight with needs over talent are

Jeremy Langford, RB Michigan St. - best blocking back in the country
Laken Tomlinson, OG, Duke - this kid is all about massive upside,

Yes it's too late. We picked up the option on Cameron Jordan but not Ingram.

Fanspeak's On the Clock NFL Mock Draft Simulator

My 7 round draft results

Round 1: Vic Beasley - OLB - Clemson
- stud at a position of need, that's all

Round 2: Denzel Perrymen - ILB - Miami
- arguably the top ILB in this draft. Kid is good, plus he has a pedigree from Miami including Ray Lewis. Jon VIima, DJ Williams, Dan Morgan, Jon Beason, etc. AND ILB is another position of need

Round 3: Rashad Greene - WR - Florida State
- another solid WR, runs precise routes, has good hands. Maybe not be 6'4 like people want these days, but he can straight ball. Plus we've seen the decline of Colston and the end of Meachem. A trio of Cooks, Stills and Greene would be nice to have, plus a 6'6 Coleman if the light bulb turns on and he figures out how to catch the ball

Round 4: Kevin Johnson - CB - Wake Forrest
- smaller school for D1 big boys. Last two seasons has had 25 PBUs and 6 INTs. Read some nice things and figured in the 4th, he'd be a good pick and it's an area of need for us

Round 5: Tyrus Thompson - OT - Oklahoma
- we NEED depth at OT, as we've seen behind Strief is a revolving door named Bryce Harris

Round 6: Miles Dieffenhach - OG - Penn State
- has an ACL tear and is out for the season, but prior to that was considered a possible 1st day, early 2nd day pick.

Round 7: David Cobb - RB - Minnesota
- currently the #8 ranked RB in college football in terms of rushing yards from scrimmage with 1350 and a 5.3 YPC average. Also has 11 TDs and there's still a couple games to play.

I'm iffy on taking any offensive player from the Big Ten unless its Ohio State(I was critical before but appears there's a big difference between Meyer and Tressel) or Michigan State. Three of first four I like especially 4 after today's scoreless 4 quarters in the VT/WF game, I would say that could be a gold mine for getting some defensive guys. The receiver I was more thinking of is Langford. Also, I think Rob Smith could be a decent pick for CB. He plays for Arkansas and anyone who can light up a game in the SEC has to be considered.

Armstead was from a division II school so maybe we should look for another OT from one of those schools? As for RB, Mike Davis is my pick he'll probably be behind Yeldon and Gordon in RB ranks.
