Shame, he had promise.

OK? That changes my draft needs a little bit? Where do I put Safety on my list of needs?

Behind DT and guard? Yes. They are my top priorities.

Behind DE, WR or CB? Maybe. They are critical positions with a need for depth.

Behind OLB,TE or RB? Probably. There are still a lot of question marks at these positions.

And where do I throw a reliable kicker in there?

The later the player is drafted from a big school, the worse they are. Elite players from big schools go early. Robinson will not be a bust.

We have to decide where we want to have flaws. On the offense? No. On the defense? In the secondary maybe. Kicking? Unless the offense doesn't get back to scoring every redzone.

7th round for S-Kevin Byard- Middle Tennesse

Danno · 04-26-2016, 06:19 PM

Starters (B+)
FS - Byrd
SS- Vaccaro

Backups (C)
FS/SS-Jamarca Sanford
SS-Erick Harris

Yes, It looks like, on paper, we probably need another FS for depth.

Easy Peasy in the Big Easy

Damien Swann (played every DB position at UGA)
PJ Williams (projected as a CB/FS)
Stop-gap vet
Late round CB/FS tweener
Roster cuts from other teams

No worries mate! We got this.

Here at Black and Gold, many users figuratively beat the desk for the Saints to draft a prospect...

Swann's concussion issues could be a problem and we need to prepare for that.

These were not Dennis Allen selections.

Dennis Allen selections will be more impactful.

Nor were they Jeff Ireland's selections for that matter.

Edit: Unless you are considering Swann and Williams who spent last year on IR and we don't know what they have to offer.
