Im Pro defense for this draft but am totally ok with getting parker with pick 13, following it up by drafting Harold/Anthony/Perryman/Dawson with picks 31/44 or watever we receive for a Stills trade.

Re: Saints Recent Moves - Insider Grades
It'd have to be a top 75 pick (no less than early third round) in the draft for this reasoning...
First, he's young, and he's entering that magical third year where WRs typically blossom - and don't think NFL front offices don't know this... Second, he's a proven commodity as a reliable route runner and the jets to burn for the big pass play... Third, as a former fifth round pick his contract is miniscule to a team's salary cap - he's major bang for the buck... Now, in another scenario, I could see moving him with pick No. 13 for a top five pick... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Re: Saints Recent Moves - Insider Grades
As for Ellerbe, while he can be good in coverage, his run defense rating of minus-15.4 was third worst for inside/middle linebackers in 2013. He then played just 18 snaps of 2014 before having a season-ending injury. Even with a restructured contract, the Saints would have been better off just trading Stills for a third, and then signing one of the linebackers left on the free-agent market.
i kind of agree with this one. but i have to wait and see the new contract. as for kenny this is another huge void in the passing game. two years ago we saw what happened to drew with a bunch of new faces running routes. no trust what so ever and held onto the ball get the OL fixed ASAP and run the ball draft a OT/OG? Brandon Scherff or La'el Collins or move streif to LG and draft a ROT that can slide over to T if needed? Jake Fisher the saints have not improved the OL. subtract one add one still = 0 |

Absolutely. NE dumps peeps like week old garbage and are praised for getting better.
BTW, they better be drafting some CBs... |
