Kiper knew what he was talking about....

Good stuff. Last year I thought we should draft all LSU players and this year I think it even more. La'el Collins at 13, Jalen Colins at 31, Danielle Hunter and Kwon Alexander with the next 2 picks. They both ran 4,5 40s at the combine. Finish up by getting Kenny Hilliard with the last pick. Hilliard is the leading rusher in Louisiana High School football history and a great short yardage back at the very least. This scenario is possible and solves our needs beautifully.

We should draft the best players not players just because they are from LSU.

The only thing I disagree with is the need at TE. Reaching for Maxx Williams at 31 would be terrible. I don't see the Saints replacing Graham with a TE. You replace Graham with a big, athletic, physical receiver.

If Clive Walford is there in the third or in a position to trade up for without giving up much id rather take him.

The report i read in Williams was he turned off alot of people at interviews in the draft. Everything was about him.

Sources Tell Us

"That Minnesota tight end came across as all about himself from what people in our room said (at the combine). They were a little turned off by him." -- NFC regional scout

Seems like we got rid of Graham for the same thing, if reports are true about his lockerroom persona.
