I suspect that if one takes a QB, you'll see an early run because you have two other playoff teams downstream Texans & Broncos who are feeling that their QBs are limiting their respective team's success...

Not to mention you've got two potential playoff teams in the Jets and Bills who are directly limited by their QB play...

Then you've got 'Zona who'd really like to get some youth at the position and not deal with the imminent retirement and fragility of Carson Palmer any longer...

So there's teams there who'll pull the trigger and maybe don't want to draft overrated QBs in Watson and Kizer...
I would not be surprised to see all the QB still on the board at 11

which would be a good thing. Browns probably would use that second first on the #1 rated QB on their board. So if any team below them, say the cards? then a quick flip of picks that involve a few places would be an option. I still love our spot. Any way I do the mock we are always sitting good.

It's more the latter teams would not be reaching for some of those quarterbacks which may make those in front of us reach and allow some impact defenders to fall to us...

I think you need to add Taco Charlton to your #11 draft pick prospects.

Taco is going to be good with some coaching but he's still too raw to take at #11. There will be better options available I believe.

Anytime I see the word raw, SJB comes to mind. I recall Mayock saying "raw" quite a few times in his pre draft evaluations on him. At pick #11, we need to draft a kid (see Rankins) ready to start & make an impact from week 1.

I'm with you on Taco ... pass.

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Draft - Scouting Prospect Visits, Bowl Games

Alright guys, let's take a break from crying about the Cooks trade and talk about something more productive... We have an extra 1st round pick! Who are some late 1st round players you like that probably wouldn't have still been on the board when our 2nd round pick rolled around?

Maybe Charles Harris? TJ Watt? Adoree Jackson?
