Okay, this is weird, as I'm reading UK_WhoDat's post, am listening to radio play Alan Parsons' Project's 'Prime Time' with lyrics [I]"...something in the air..."

...wow, life feels like it's in stereo this morn...

Added this guy at WR. Not sure how the difference in competition will hurt his game but decent tape and the NFL draft prospect break down is on point. Hopefully if he gets some route running tips he can be worth some positive plays.

Decent highlight tape, he's certainly good at attacking the ball during contested passes and seems to show good hands (obv. They wouldn't show any drops on a highlight tape) lol

Marques Colston came from a small program so it's certainly possible.

Re: Grade the OVERALL 2015 Saints draft?

Really love our picks with only question mark being the third fifth-round selection (DB Damian Swann); so for the picks "A-"

As far as the management of the draft, still would have like to have moved up and drafted OLB Vic Beasley and used the second round pick on a right tackle (i.e. Jake Fisher)...

And kidding around aside about Jeff Ireland taking a bathroom break while Sean Mickey moving back into the fifth - didn't understand the move, value nor need for that pick - "B-"

So Overall Grade is a "B+"

But, I think this draft grade can only go up and I suspect it will be a top five draft in Saints history...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Re: Grade the OVERALL 2015 Saints draft?

Gave them a B+, would've been an A had we drafted a WR. But I love what we did for the defense.

Defense will be much improved, OLine will be much much improved and that is a recipe for success.
