OJ better be off the board at 11. 32 - Garret Bolles, Marcus Williams , T.J. Watt and even Obi Melifonwu better be off the board 42 Quincy Wilson Cordrea Tankersley and even Chris Godwin better be off the board after that it is always a crap shoot. |

Bolles' baggage is a concern for a first rounder... Marcus Williams is a late second round safety - Josh Jones will be better... Obi-Wan Melifonwu? Workout warrior, Flavor of the Month - where was the fanfare this past season? Don't be surprised if Watt is still there at 42; I'd really think about taking K-State DE Jordan Willis at this spot as well... |

Re: Jeff Duncan's 2017 Saints Mock Draft 3.0
I just looked at 5 different "top draft prospects" articles- he falls between # 17 - 26 in all 5, near the higher end (23) in most
He has the size and seems like a character player, but probably not worth a top 15 pick Really depends on what the Bengals do or what we think they'll do at #9 |

Re: Jeff Duncan's 2017 Saints Mock Draft 3.0
If he's slated by the so called experts to be a 17-26 pick, does it really matter if we pick him at 11?
He's still a 1st round pass rushing DE. Should we pass on a 1st round pass rusher because he's "slotted" to be picked a few picks later? I just don't agree with that. EVERY 1st round prospect has the talent to become all-world. IMO there's not much difference between an 11th or a 17th. |

Re: Jeff Duncan's 2017 Saints Mock Draft 3.0
I hate foot injuries.
That was high school stuff and look at the way he turned his life around. Besides we spent a first rounder on a LT and prayed he could be a RT. We still have not answered that need. Bolles is a swing OT that can swing at OG also. The only spot left on the OL in question is center. What more do you want out of a player you are grooming to take over for Zach?

One thing bugs me about Willis. He only played on the left side of the DL his entire college career. I believe we set on that side. Call it the Peat based fear. |

Arguably the best player in college football, DE Arden Key, is 6'6 238. 12 sacks and 3 FF last year.

Hagan, you did see he ran one of the fastest 40s when he wasn't even expected to break 4.6? He's obviously healed quite nicely...

Re: Jeff Duncan's 2017 Saints Mock Draft 3.0
Just saw a mock that had us taking Barnett then riddick with 32. If we got that and either white or jones slipped to 42 that would b a perfect draft and trade next yrs 2nd to NE. That would b my ideal offseason. The de we need. A great lb. and the CB we need with a very promising young one as well. Thoughts?
