Saints On The Clock

and Thomas Davis, Jammal Brown, and Travis Johnson are still on the board. who do ya choose?

Here's how as I see it...
1) SF Rodgers QB, others maybe better #1 but they need to rebuild from the core, so it goes to him

2) MIA Cedric Benson RB, until they get Edgerrin James I will think this

3) CLE Alex Smith QB, could be DJ if Crennel wants highest impact defensive player. Ronnie Brown wouldn't surprise here either. Dilfer is a perfect manager for a year (ala Kitna, Warner) while Smith learns the ropes

4) CHI Ronnie Brown RB, with Muhammed this will revitalize their offense

5) TB Cadillac Williams RB, Gruden loves him. A big need, but they have plenty of them like DJ or Rolle could fill too.

6) TN Braylon Edwards WR, they need to fill the loss of 2 cb's (one all-pro) and the leagues leading receiver. Derrick Johnson is still on the board and they might easily find a trade partner (including N.O.) to move down as they want. Edwards is arguably the best overall pick in this draft class.

7) MIN Derrick Johnson LB, they are tempted to replace Moss with Williams. They might have already with a free agent or they could get Williamson or Clayton at pick #18. Best high impact defensive guy on board continues Vikings defensive upgrade.

8) ARZ Antrelle Rolle CB, top 3 rb's and top 2 qb's long gone. Best defensive player on the board gets the nod.

9) WASH Mike Williams WR, good value here. perfect compliment to Santana Moss.

10) DET Pacman Jones CB, best defensive player on board. Could as well be a DE

11) DAL Shawne Merriman DE OLB, a John Abraham clone (which Parcells drafted). Perfect for going to 3-4

12) SD Marcus Spears DL, another great 3-4 guy, great athleticism and character

13) HOU Alex Barron OT, insurance investment for David Carr, pass rusher a second choice here

14) CARO Heath Miller TE, just as easily Jammal Brown but they decide to add another weapon with Muhammed's departure

15) KC Erasmus James DE, they are still very active in free agency so it depends on signings. Looks like need and value meet on defense at this pick

Nawlins...
Thomas Davis looks like a badass whether he shakes out at SS or LB which could both help. I think he is more SS-like. They wanna fly with Bellamy so even tho I might say yea this FO says nay. Travis Johnson the #1 DT is available but he did just come on last year. Innuendo I have read makes me question his character. Already have a #1 DT like that, so pass. With no more free agent OT's signed and there not being a lot of miles left for Mayberry or Gandy this would be a prudent pick. The New Orleans Saints with the 16th pick of the 2005 NFL draft select Jammal Brown, offensive tackle from Oklahoma.

6'6" 316lbs, Outland trophy winner. Best man on one of the best offensive lines in the country. Dominant plass blocker, could be a LT in NFL. the rest of the story...
