Sunseri release left a hole at free safety. We drafted the best Cover Safety in the draft. You girls are way too pissy

Loved the Rankins and Thomas picks... Bell, not so much. Trading up for him no less ugh. Obviously he'll be replacing Byrd down the road which could work out but now all we have left is a 5th and 7th round pick to find a guard and edge rusher.

Nassib? I had him ranked very low on my list.

Sean Davis DB Maryland 6011 201 4.46

Really think Payton views the draft as a nuisance and really just wants to rap it up...

Waay too much value out there to have just thrown it in like he has...

Very discouraging, gotta feeling there's gonna be some fallout in the next few months...

So far we have made solid picks . I feel all three of these players Wil come in and contribute right away . If this is true we have a successful draft.

Not to sound like a homer, but can we please draft someone from the SEC.....

I'd rather hit on 4-5 picks than miss with 10-12 picks, it's quality not quantity

lee909 04-29-2016 08:49 PM

Re: 2016 Saints Draft Live Discussion Thread
 
A few available FA

Danny Lansanah (RFA),
LaMarr Woodley, DE/OLB
A.J. Hawk, OLB
Jeremy Mincey, DE
Jahri Evans OG

Not really. We have the UDFA, free agency and our own roster, too. Don't forget that Kikaha will be joining Cam at DE this coming season.

We still have not added any speed to our slow defense....we need speed in our front seven and I promise our secondary will look better.

And for those who think Ireland is pulling the strings....i think he's Payton's puppet right now.

Of course Payton is pulling the trigger. But Ireland is doing a better job of loading the gun than our past scouting team.

Nevermind. I like the pick. I like Von Bell too.

Re: 2016 Saints Draft Live Discussion Thread
 
I am feeling for Drew. pass on a plug and start OT in round 1. Slide peat to LG
Now no picks till the 5th if the saints even think about OL.

That problem will be resolved when he becomes a $15 million QB in a couple of weeks. ;)

Very good OL's are picked up in late rounds all the time. Picking one early is no guarantee.

Remember we have Williams back this year to add to the rookies

Our scouting department still needs some better, fresher blood...

Mike Baugh, still with the team since 2008?
Brendan Prophett, fired from the Jets
Jon Sandusky, fired from the Browns
Joey Vitt Jr., WTF are his credentials?!?

And we hired them?!? SMH

I'm sure your right but right now the Saints go as drew goes. Gotta keep him standing for the next few years

Only 44.4% of passes thrown into Vonn Bell's coverage in 2015 were completed, 2nd-best rate for S in the NFL Draft (min. 25 targets)

Did you see OSU's schedule in 2015? Some Louisiana High Schools had tougher schedules...

They can definitely trade back up, if they feel they need to. No telling what they have planned.

Thats what a good front seven will do for you...make it hard to complete passes accurately down the field...

Re: 2016 Saints Draft Live Discussion Thread
 
I ok with the picks but we only get 5 out of 7 possible players.There is decent players in the 4th, ones that build good depth. Thats something we lack in a lot of areas.

Not disputing the importance of a front seven, just question the level of competition they faced and if their self-proclaimed dominance (at least, until, they faced real teams) was because they overmatch in talent...

Ridgeway, Hassan (DT)Texas6.0
Billings, Andrew (NT)Baylor6.0
Clark, Le'Raven (OT)

Somebody getting a third round bargain
