Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8

100 bucks says both of the Browns picks will be flops.

Re: Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8
 

I am seeing a lot of speculation the Saints will target Marlon Humphrey. Would definitely fill a big need in the secondary.

Re: Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8
 

Umm, defensive front 7 or Oline in 1st round....pretty please 8-).


Keep an eye on LB Zach Cunningham from Vandy as well.

Re: Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8
 

IMO, and that's all it is, we need to do enough to maintain on defense - add some where we can add some - but we should make our priority the o-line. That'll help Drew and whomever eventually replaces him. Building that o-line should be task #1.

Re: Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8
 

I would agree. However I think we are set at LT and that's pretty much the only position on the OL that would warrant a pick in the top 10. The only way I would like us to pick a guard that high is if it was the next Larry Allen.

Re: Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8
 

Pick #5 is worth its weight in gold. Thats where I would love to be sitting come draft day. Take a true game changer or trade down and reap the rewards.

Re: Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8
 

Agreed, I believe Kalil Mack was taken with the 5th pick.

odds are we will not have top talent drop into our laps

second tier level of talent appears deep and if needs is the governing factor, trading back a few spot will still allow us the chance to get that talent.

Then again I am trade back freak.

As long as you stay in the top 15 we should have more than player still on the board to fill a need with BPA qualities.

I really like and I mean really like players getting 3rd 4th 5th rankings by the media that fill needs.

I want more picks, then again I always do lol

Re: Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8
 

Vontae Mack was taken first overall a few years ago over Bo Callahan, Hopefully we can find someone like mack even with a later pick.......

Re: Preliminary Draft Order - Saints Currently @ No. 8
 

The only problem is we will maybe win out . We always do when we are eliminated

Unless we are going to target a RT then we can use the first round pick on a DE.....or even a LB'er. The O-line should be a priority in the second and possibly the third as well. We are weak along the O-line and have to shore it up to be dominant again.
