2015 draft??

lee909 · 03-06-2015, 12:07 AM

Really dont see them loosing a first rounder.
Maybe a second,probably a third. It wouldn't even surprise me if it was less or not sorted till next year. I cant understand whats taking so long to sort it out the are not saying they didnt do it.

The leagues discipline system is a joke. Players getting investigated and possibly suspended after the courts/attorneys decide there is no case to answer. How can the league think its allowed to discipline a man when the courts dont?

we lost two 2nds over late emails and down right cheating is not worth a 1st?

Not saying they shouldn't loose the pick. We all know why we lost the picks and it wasn't the 'bounty' but the fact the league was fighting concussion lawsuits and had the bot dont something they would have looked like dont care.

NFL draft: Year off a blessing in disguise for Belsterling

Taylor Belsterling's body and ability have finally caught up with his dream to play pro football.

He's no longer that tall, scrawny 165-pound receiver who literally just played his senior year at Catholic. Now a muscular 204 pounds, the 6-foot, 4-inch Belsterling has caught the attention of several NFL teams because of his size, speed, hops and hands.

blah blah blah

At Troy's pro day earlier this week, Belsterling ran the 40-yard dash in an unofficial time of 4.5 seconds, had a vertical jump of 36 inches and board jumped 10 feet, three inches.

Belsterling also finished the L drill in less than seven seconds at 6.97. He was one of two athletes out of 19 Monday to do achieve that with former Troy receiver Chandler Worthy being the other. Worthy, who is several inches shorter and 31 pounds lighter than Belsterling, completed the L drill in 6.94 seconds.

blah blah blah

"The (New Orleans) Saints have had three different guys evaluate him," Turk said. "I think the (New York) Giants have shown a lot of interest. That's the way it appears anyway. Those two stick out, but there are others."

Ingram's going to get released and they're going to draft Melvin Gordon. Watch!

Not that Gordon isn't a good player...

..., but spending anything higher than a fourth round pick on a running, well...

, we've just got needs at Center, Both Guards, Outside Linebacker, Inside Linebacker, and, the 'other' Cornerback...

I'd rather re-sign Roll-Tide, or sign Ryan Matthews, Darren McFadden, Reggie Bush...

...we've got 20 big ones tied into Brees, with big commits to Colston and Graham, plus Stills and Cooks...

Just makes no sense to commit that much to one RB when we're a RB-by-committee team...

Might spend a third on Indiana's Tevin Coleman, an excellent complimentary back to what we're doing...

The RB via UDFA thing has been too bad either...

Just read a mock draft from Bleacher Report(yes, I know

) At least they give a pretty decent reason for the selection:

The Pick: Alvin Dupree, OLB, Kentucky

One of the freakiest athletes in the 2015 class is Kentucky’s Alvin Dupree. His combine performance was one for the ages, as his 40-yard dash, vertical and broad jumps created an insane explosion score. That athleticism is worthy of a first-round investment.

It’s not like Dupree can’t play and that he’s all-athlete. His role at Kentucky often had him reading keys and playing the run game. But the few times he was unleashed as a pass-rusher, he was pretty impressive. His hand usage needs improvement, but that can be coached.

The Saints could use an athlete like Dupree. They’re shopping Curtis Lofton and have a multitude of other maneuvers that must happen to help their woeful cap situation. Dupree can play as an edge-rusher or as a strong-side linebacker, depending on the scheme.
