He needed a wake-up call, which the Saints' coaching staff were for some reason unable to provide when he was still with the team.

He finally had to coach himself.*

Hard to want to click through 72 pages of posts. Has Darren Lee's name come up anywhere? He's a little small, but he can sure bring the wood, catch and has some amazing football smarts.

Chatty Cathy - Not good, Not good at all - Y'all can take him off of Sean Payton's draft board...

Sua, Coach Payton doesn't geaux for the social media thing...

Now you know why I had him ranked so low. I'm telling you schools and conferences matter.

As much as many don't like it we may have to pass on a LB this draft.

He reminds me of Cie Grant. Very few tweeners succeed in this league.

Yes, he may be the next Derrick Brooks, but is it worth the gamble at pick #12?

Perhaps simply Brees negotiation tactics?

Then again, if we don't reach a deal with Brees before the draft, I'm OK with a QB at 12 if Payton thinks he can mold him into a franchise QB.

If you guys haven't seen this yet it's definitely worth a read. Shaq Lawson is a tremendous young man.

Good point. We need someone ready to step right onto the field for our first rounder. Especially on the defensive side.

Cook's just a Hoyer with a little more polish.

I don't know much about the college players but I think I'm in serious like with Lawson.
