Re: 2015 draft??
Lol at coates #3. His drop issues can just not be overlooked. Rather have a sure handed wr then someone with bulk or speed which is the craze for Coates. Saw it in the senior bowl as well. Pass.
Parker could end up being the best wr from this class & he along with White have higher ceilings than Cooper. Have no problem saying that. We have a smaller version of cooper in Cooks. Cooks game against Green Bay really shows some similarities. Strong that low is laughable as well. Lippett has always intrigued me, versatility he played for Michigan St was awesome. Two way player(CB/WR) needs to polish his game so he wont go til rnd 3 at the earliest. |

Re: 2015 draft??
Benjamin's knock was also hands and he was one of the best rookies last season. I just don't want a developmental project and believe Coats performances against LSU and Alabama shows he has what it takes to get up for big games.
Strong plays for the pac 12. I'm not gonna lie. I had Cooks not in my top five last year. I thought Watkins, OBD, Benjamin, Evans, and Robinson were better and four of them did play well and made more big plays than Cooks. The other one played on a bad team. Thats not to say Cooks is not good but as someone else said he may not be a true number 1 type of receiver. Cooks played for Oregon State. I think NFL defenses are just way more impactful than college defenses but with five star defensive players in the SEC and ACC and playing against such most of the season they prepare a player well for it. If we draft Strong he better be ready to beat coverage because Brees usually makes some of his best plays to receivers in between defenders. Can Strong deal with that? If we're not looking for a number 1 receiver then thats fine any of them can do but the more they weigh the less injury prone. |

Around the NFL writer Published: Dec. 30, 2014 at 10:38 a.m. Kelvin Benjamin added two more drops Sunday to take his total to 11 for the season. Panthers not fretting Kelvin Benjamin's drops - NFL.com he makes a huge impact WHEN he catches the ball but the issue remains. I am still glad we did not draft him. he just does not run the tree as well as we need WR too.

possession wide receiver. AKA Colston He’s reliable, athletic and quick off the snap. He’s not polished or a burner Big Question out there is effort. Over used or just gets sloppy? He is good enough for teams to consider trading back into one to get because after him there is a bit off a talent drop off But if the phone rings and a team wants to trade up to 31 and they are in the top ten of round 2 you have to consider it. If there is no player worth reaching for in round 1 i would trade out |

Re: 2015 draft??
I've seen Amari Cooper mocked to us more often at #13; would not be disappointed...
and then Walter from WalterFootball.com has us selecting Markus Golden with the #31 Perryman in the 2nd |

Re: 2015 draft??
WOW, after seeing those names it really didn't hurt the team that Satan took 2nd round picks from the team for 2 years. If anything looks like Saints can't draft for dog **** in the 2nd round
