Trying hard not to geaux all Danneaux on you...

You do realize the kind of athlete that Shaq is?!?

He just doubled up as he was pressed into duty as a running back and rushed for 178 yards in a win against Colorado?!?

This is EXACTLY the kind of athlete we need in our linebacking corps...

jeanpierre · 12-27-2014, 01:37 AM

Round 1 - LB Shaq Thompson, Washington (Jr); 6' 2", 231lbs

He's got elite athleticism and situational flexibility would have a huge impact; he'd be a no brainer if he's there when we pick; no one wants to tank, but it wouldn't be a bad thing if we had a higher spot in the draft to select him...

Round 2 - NT Malcolm Brown, Texas (Jr); 6' 4", 325lbs

We regressed this season plugging up the middle; not sure John Jenkins was completely healed and Bunkley looked like age and past mileage caught up with him; Brown could be what Nagoti has been for the Ravens...

Round 3 - OG Jarvis Harrison, Texas A & M (Sr); 6' 3", 325 lbs

The only reason he falls this far is because he'll need some coaching up; he's flashed special brillance at times and just needs the right leadership and coaching to put it together...

Round 4 - DE Lynden Trail, Norfolk State (Sr); 6' 7", 260 lbs

Big plans fell through when Urban Meyer bailed on Florida; it set this freakish athelete back; and though he's played at a small school to recover his football career, he's continued to get bigger and could be what Cam Jordan was suppose to be for the Saints...

Round 5 - LB Jake Ryan, Michigan (Sr); 6' 3", 235 lb

Haven't had this smart a linebacker since Scott Fujita left; he's got great size and his 'football IQ and acumen' is exactly what the doctor ordered to lead the linebacking corps...

Round 6 - OL Ben Beckwith, Mississippi St (Sr); 6' 3", 305 lbs

Flexible interior linemen; started at Center for State in a spot start - and got named SEC offensive lineman of the week no less; at the least, adds much needed quality depth to the offensive line, but he'll start by end of his rookie year...

Round 7 - OL Cole Manhart, Nebraska-Kearney, (Sr); 6' 5", 304 lbs

Another small school diamond in the rough; scouts keep noting two stand out qualities; first, he's very athletic as he plays fullback in a special power punch package for his team; second, he's got a nasty disposition of laying out the pain; Sold!

jeanpierre · 01-10-2015, 06:26 PM

Round 1 - CB P.J. Williams, Florida State (Jr); 6' 0", 196lbs

Round 2 - LB Denzel Perryman, Miami, Fl (Jr); 5' 11", 240lbs

Round 3 - LB Zach Hodges, Harvard (Sr); 6' 3", 235 lbs

Round 4 - DE Henry Anderson, Stanford (Sr); 6' 6", 295 lbs

Round 5 - OL John Miller, Louisville (Sr); 6' 2", 325 lb

Round 6 - OL Ben Beckwith, Mississippi St (Sr); 6' 3", 305 lbs

Round 7 - OL Cole Manhart, Nebraska-Kearney, (Sr); 6' 5", 304 lbs

You would take PJ that high? I like PJ, but id Rather have Trae Waynes there. Daniel Jeremiah was just studying him this week & was tweeting out some thoughts...one of which was that he believed Waynes is better than any CB in last years draft(ie: Dennard, Fuller, Verrett, Roby, etc)

Thats pretty high praise....i'll take that all day. & for a #2 CB behind Keenan makes it even sweeter.

Biggest positive on the kid is he's not handsy, doesnt have to rely on grabbing & pulling his matchup. I saw a video the other day of him shadowing the wr step for step. Quite impressive & arrow is only pointing up for him.

I dont exactly have a favorite prospect id like to have with our 1st round pick, but he's definitely in the top bunch. Day 2 would definitely have to be Perryman with a few close seconds.

Gotta go O-line with 2 of the top 3 I would think. We will have almost 18 million tied up in our Guards next year.

lee909 · 11-24-2014, 10:27 PM

Which isnt really cutable till 2016 season. Thats why id take one OL but focus on defense and then offense in 2016

voodooido · 11-24-2014, 10:28 PM

And CB has to be up there!

jeanpierre · 11-24-2014, 10:36 PM

Wouldn't spend anything higher than a fourth on CB...

We haven't been able to draft a CB; geaux FA proven CBs...

WillSaints81 · 11-24-2014, 11:19 PM

That's because we're getting CBs from the wrong schools. We have a scouting problem.
