2015 draft??

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Thinking about the Parys Haralson resigning today I realized that he's the only real OLB we have. Galette is really just a situational DE... We've still never seen him take many snaps as a stand-up rusher. Edebali and Powell? Jury's ...

Re: 2015 draft??

Thinking about the Parys Haralson resigning today I realized that he's the only real OLB we have. Galette is really just a situational DE... We've still never seen him take many snaps as a stand-up rusher. Edebali and Powell? Jury's still out. Whether it's the draft or free agency we really need to acquire more players that can fit the 3-4 scheme.

Or just decide that we have more talent suited for a 4-3.

But we need to decide on a basic scheme, and acquire players best suited for it and move on from players not suited for it.

Sadly I don't think Rob Ryan will ultimately work out and we'll go back to the 4-3 with Dennis Allen as DC. He's already on the same level as Rob when it comes to the chain of command.

Well the top 4 defenses in the NFL all run a 4-3. It wouldn't hurt my feelings at all if we went back to a 4-3. We suck at picking LB's anyway.

Re: 2015 draft??

Fanspeak

No. 013 (R1, 13) OL Brandon Scherff, Iowa; 6' 5", 320 lbs.

No. 044 (R2, 12) LB Denzel Perryman, Miami (Florida); 5' 11", 245 lbs.

No. 067 (R3, 03) LB Lorenzo Mauldin, Louisville; 6' 4", 255 lbs.

Traded Pick 075 (R3,11) and a Future 4th round pick with Jacksonville

No. 109 (R4, 13) LB Stephone Anthony, Clemson; 6’ 1”, 200 lbs.

No. 140 (R5, 12) CB Eric Rowe, Utah; 6’ 1”, 204 lbs.

No. 171 (R6, 11) RB Michael Dyer, Louiisville~Auburn; 5' 9", 215 lbs.

No. 205 (R7, 13) LB Davis Tull, Tennessee-Chattanooga; 6’ 3”, 245 lbs.

With this draft simulation, Scherff fell with Thompson taken and Perryman fell so I took full advantage...

In the third, no way I was still getting a quality OLB which the Saints desperately need, so I jumped ahead of Rams who are trying to replace Dunbar and Bears who are moving to a 3-4 base package...

Note: If I could somehow make a sign and trade deal to move Galette limiting further cap commitment and gain a pick, I'd do the deal for a third or fourth rounder to a team that needs a pass rusher...

Again, found another great CB candidate to develop without using a high pick...

As a philosophy and in the Saints offense, I'd never want to use higher than a fourth round pick on a running back...

Tull in the seventh, and wouldn't discount he could move inside to one of those linebacking spots...

Realistically, can't see Scherff falling to us, but he's the only guy I'd want at No. 13 other than Shaq Thompson, otherwise I'm trading back and going with Plan B...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

No. 013 (R1, 13) OL Brandon Scherff, Iowa; 6' 5", 320 lbs.I was reading we need to see his arm measurements. if 32" or less word is guard all the way. which i understand but i think he is the acception to the rule. so come on 32 lol

No. 140 (R5, 12) CB Eric Rowe, Utah; 6’ 1”, 204 lbs.

he will end up moving back to safety i think.

Respectfully disagree re: Rowe...

In clippings I've read, he really showed something as a CB and he may actually have a higher ceiling than many of the '15 prospects...

With Dennis Allen back in the fold, I think he's the right level of investment/development selection for us in this draft...

Rowe or the Miami kid is what I'm thinking...

Get that pass rush going, collapse that pocket - that's the key to better DB play...
