Re: So who do we draft?

Personal preference: Best available D-lineman & O-lineman 1st through 3rd Rounds.

No trading up; only trade down for additional picks.

Re: So who do we draft?

So how is Schereff doing for Washington so far?

I don't know what type of Money Von Miller would command but that would get us a pass rusher of the highest caliber.

Steady but at least his team is finding a way to win.

Re: So who do we draft?

Get a Vet WR and hold off on drafting one until rd 3. We need to hit with a DL that has a great pass rush and a OL that can be plugged in right away. Drew has a very fast release but this year it's not even close to fast enough. The guy needs more time. And with a dominant pass rush our DB's will look much better.

Had been holding this back out of sensitivity to the Saints onfield struggles...

My ole draft pal Hagan will tell you that I'm all about talking the draft...

There's college talent and there's professional talent. Apples and oranges. The SEC recruits a lot of good talent and several of those schools develop it to a high college level. However, those boys enter the pros and they're just as lost as everyone else without good coaches bringing them up to pro speed.

I said last year that we require a NT.

Re: So who do we draft?

We used a draft pick on a quarterback last year . I think that third rounder should be a NT also.

+1. I would even consider rd 2 on a NT. I didn't see it (may have missed it) mentioned in JP or Hagin earlier post on draft picks but I'm surprised no one has brought up the name A'Shawn Robinson from Bama.

I think this kid will be a solid RUN STUFFER at the NFL level.
