WE already had a talented team from the offseason and letting the cancers go. This isn't a draft killer, we still have another pick. But I wanted Petty. I guess our FO don't like God fearing Christians.

We have to deal with it. It's a coming need either this year or next.
We could still snag Le'el in late rounds. I don't think anyone will touch Collins.

Drew Brees is a free agent after next year, just a reminder

OVERVIEW
Full-time starter over the last two seasons and started 35 games over four seasons at Colorado State. Owns CSU passing records for yards, touchdowns, completions and completion percentage. Named Mountain West Offensive Player of the Year and first-team All-Mountain West in 2014. Invited to Senior Bowl and finished game 8-of-15 for 118 yards. In 2013, broke single-game total offense record with 455 yards against Boise State. Started first five games in 2012, but suffered broken clavicle. Was expected to grayshirt in 2011, but ended up starting three games as a freshman. At Heritage high school, was named three-time first-team All-Region and had nation's highest completion percentage as a senior (73.2). His uncle, Danny Grayson, was an All-American linebacker at Washington State and was a seventh-round pick in 1990 by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

PRO DAY RESULTS
40-yard dash: 4.72 and 4.78 seconds
Vertical jump: 34 inches
Broad jump: 10 feet, 1 inch
Short shuttle: 4.35 seconds
3-cone: 6.97 seconds

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS
Tremendous deep-ball touch and accuracy this season. Puts air under the ball and feathers throw into consistently catchable spots for receivers. Gets feet set and uses lower body and proper weight transfer to drive the ball to his target with zip. Works to square shoulders to throw when outside of the pocket. Scouts love his toughness and improved poise in the pocket. Willing to face down oncoming rusher and take hit in order to deliver the pass. Shows confidence to challenge safeties and will attack press-man cornerbacks over the top. Production improved each season as starter. Has worked under center, in pistol and out of shotgun.

WEAKNESSES
Has a small windup, which slows release. Catch-and-run touchdowns helped inflate his YPA and touchdowns this season. Tape work shows inconsistent decision-making and and a need for faster processing. Gets too locked in on his primary target. Rarely threatens defenses with feet. Lacks improvisation and ability to extend plays. Needs play to stay on schedule. Needs work on anticipation and trusting windows. Slow getting into his drops and scouts want quicker ball handling from him. Shows inconsistent accuracy on short throws into windows against zone. Will run his receivers into big collisions at times.

DRAFT PROJECTION Round 4 or 5

NFL COMPARISON Landry Jones

BOTTOM LINE
Grayson went from fringe draft prospect to clearly on the draft board with a strong 2014 season. Despite average arm talent, he uses good lower-body mechanics to generate velocity and his touch and accuracy on deep throws is eye-opening. Grayson needs more tape work to help improve his decision-making, but his size, production and growth at the position have ticked the requisite draft boxes to make him an intriguing mid-round prospect

Amazing everyone ******* about not having a Brees backup and then the same ones ***** when we pick one???????? With that said I think Harold or Tre Jackson goes at 78.

I think the board here influenced that pick. Kind of bummed.

Saints were having a very nice draft. Just drove that right off the tracks.

This is the first pick I don't like. Too many positions of need . This is a guy that doesn't help for 3-4 years.

I feel we aren't addressing our defence. We also badly need a WR.

Petty would have been the better choice but what do I know. Hope it all works out if he's the future that was unexpected lol Keep calm
Though we could regret complaining few years from now.

That's that folks... We're commencing life without Brees.

You do realize Drew has only two years left on his contract? If Grayson works out then Drew won't be resigned...

New Orleans Saints: Garrett Grayson, QB, Colorado State: B Grade
I guess Ian Rapoport won't be punching anyone in his no-no-special-place (see the NFL Draft Day 2 Preview for that reference). The Saints were rumored to take Bryce Petty, but I never bought into that. Garrett Grayson makes more sense, as he was the third-best quarterback available behind Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota. Grayson will learn behind Drew Brees for a few seasons and should be able to step in at some point down the road.

Anybody wanna place bets on whether or not he even makes the team? I'll bet he only makes it as far as last cut because they won't be ready to admit their mistake.
