2015 draft??

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Really don't think we're moving back in the draft picking up picks as we've no room to sign that many players... If anything, we're moving up, fewer players for the little cap room we've got......

nothing wrong with trading back and getting picks for next year. take this rare moment of so many picks and spreading a few out to make this moment last a bit longer. i know not exactly the saints style.

i would rather them do that if we miss out on our targeted players than reach, hope and pray with that pick.

Eli Harold at 13? i will be livid to tell the truth. i have a hard enough time taking him at 31 but i could understand the PICK> LIKE SJB it would be a pick of need and show that the saints have absolutely no faith in the young OLB as a whole that we have now. my initial reaction would be that Ronald Powell is no where ready to helping out.

A desperation reach pick for need. we are not that bad off there to not pick a better prospect at 13 without all the hype attached them. Eli has a ton of it.

i will go back and look at him but i really can see it much less a new TV if they made the pick at 13

Actually, many mocks have teams taking him between 15-25...

I'd be not as upset if they took Harold at 31, if they did it at 13 then the remote is going through the TV

I've found a decent corner who should be there in the 5th/6th/7th... Lorenzo Doss - Tulane

I agree buddy. Lol sounds like Corey White all over again. Lets not draft on potential, we need guys who can step in day 1.

Im not by any means saying Brandon Browner is a franchise savior at CB, but i feel with the acquisition it gives us room to draft front 7 whether it be DT, Edge or ILB. I say pass on corner in round 1. Plenty of depth in the draft to get a guy later & sit under Keenan & Brandon, besides i still wanna see what Delvin Breaux & SJB can do. Sean was just praising both the other day...i do really hope that Sean & Mickey's thoughts on SJB are genuine/real. Rooting for SJB.

SJB? i got my pomp pomps out for him. for him to actually get on the field would be a great sign. that and not look so lost he ends up at the concession stands

he could be the biggest impact player on defense if he is ready to step in and log some serious time in the secondary. he does not need to take over on the outside as a starter to accomplish this either

till he does i still have the secondary as a work in progress that is no where near completed,

Collins looks the part sure but he has not played enough IMO to really get a good feel for him and his ability mentally to play the position. if he is of interest i would throw a third round option at you that is prett much the same type of player with less on the field questions: Josh Shaw USC. then you got the bobbi prize player that just makes you shake your head in Justin Cox, talent and head aches

Lorenzo Doss - Tulane whats not to like really. but i fear he will not make into the 5th. just like Charles Gaines

Re: 2015 draft??

Big contingent from the Saints at FSU today including Sean Payton and Rob Ryan. Lots of players there that we're probably interested in: Mario Edwards, PJ Williams, Ronald Darby, Cameron Erving... Jameis Winston lol. Just joking but it's a busy day for our coaches.
