SAFETY priority ?????
 

Safety . may be nearly as a need as CB. Bell and Vaccaro have very little behind them.
Several quality safety prospects in this deep draft.
Jamal Adams would be a welcomed addition as would Malik Hooker, Jabrill Peppers
Eddie Jackson OBI Melifonwu
I could see the saints using one pick on a S.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

lets talk FS.

Marcus Williams FS Utah 6005 202 4.56 #20 Jr

If Marcus is on the board in the 3rd the saints should be thinking safety blanket if Bell is not working out. He is a ball hawk that has excellent tackling skills. Probably good enough to be a day one starter.

or

Quincy Wilson CB/FS/SS Florida 6012 211 4.54 #6 Jr

Another option in the third probably after the display of stiff hips he has shown to have. At least he can spot match up with bigger WR/TE in sub packages. I think FS is were his future lies. His instincts are about as solid as they come.

Hagan I like both these players .
Where would you see these players being drafted 3rd rd?

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

I am kind of surprised we are not hearing much of anything concerning the safety position. I am wondering if the Saints plan on moving Damian Swann or PJ Williams to safety?

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Late second earl 3rd depends on the hype factor of all the other players. I am thinking they may slip due to being players the tape tells more than off season. They did not out up surprising numbers

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

If hooker some how falls to us at 11, i would love for us to get him. He has ed reed written all over him.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Using a pick on a postion isn't really what we do. BPA no matter the position.

You just have to wait and see how the draft falls to you.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Don't we already have like twelve safeties and around fourteen ILBs?

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Need at least 3 more safeties and a couple of TE's!

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Bush kind of relieves us of the pressure to pick one in the first 2 rds. I still however think they would jump on Adams if he fell to us. Hooker very well may fall to 11.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

I don't think safety is a must, but its pretty damn close.

If Hooker, Adams or Peppers are there at 11, I won't complain if we pick one. They are difference makers.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Give me Peppers.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Wouldn't have a problem with Peppers but not at 11. With Byrd being gone we need a safety. I almost wish we gave byrd one more year. He was looking healthy the last few games of the season.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Gaaaahhhhh!!!

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Peppers can already line up anywhere. RB's or TE's out of the backfield no problem, in the slot no problem, blitz like an animal no problem, cover a #2 or #3 WR no problem, I watched Dion Sanders ask Maylock what he didn't like about Peppers at the combine with that little smirk he has and it just reassured me of what I liked about this kid. At pick 11 I have not 1 problem with this kid. I think he could make a great SS or a good FS.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Would you be saying this if he were from another school? He didn't look all that great against the Bucks. He'll be short lived and average in the big leagues.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

I'd much rather a DE or even a LB before Peppers.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

I would love Peppers in the 3 Safety set. A blitzing machine that can cover with the best of them. Pick him at 11? I would not, wait till 32 and jump all over him.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Safety was never a priority in my mind.....but damn. We need another FS in a bad way. Byrd was a bit of a head scratcher, but the cost vs. production didn't represent good value.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

We might be surprised by one of our latest CFL signings Forrest Hightower.

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

For better or for worse?

Re: SAFETY priority ?????
 

Yet another DB sub 5'10" grrr 5093
