It’s mock draft season, the time of year when fans sit back and wait for projections about whom their team is going to draft. One of those guesses from someone perceived to be an industry leader can create headlines across the country.

Sometimes these guys nail their guesses. Sometimes they project guys who would have been better picks. Most often, at least as history shows, the team does something the mock drafters were not expecting and ends up making the right move.

It’s impossible to know how any player will develop in a different situation. An offensive player selected by the Cleveland Browns probably isn’t going to turn out the same way that one would with the Saints. But as history shows, teams typically do a decent job of picking the right players to fit their system, at least in the first round.

Nice article. Our 1st round drafts have been ok. It's our FA activity that has hurt us.

2011 Cameron Jordan was kinda of a no brainier really when he dropped into our laps. The Ingram move is the history marker in that draft. K. J. Wright is my personal lesson in this draft


2013 - trade back
Alec Ogletree

2014
Deone Bucannon
Lesson Allen Robinson Jarvis Landry. James White

2015 trade back as usual lol
DeVante Parker
Lessons Kevin Johnson David Johnson, Ty Montgomery,

2016
Laremy Tunsil


It is really hard to judge anything till their rookie contracts are up.
