I have him as the top rated CB with upside

Lattimore Achilles drops like a rock IMO

Or we could begin the night with a Hooker and end things with a Taco
Why the hell do so many people look at the lose of Cooks as the loss of our entire receiving corp? The people we have are bad assed! Cooks would be a luxury this year. It's the reliable TE we need much more than a Cooks replacement. There's gonna be plenty of capable hands available in the third to fill our needs without wasting a one on this guy.

As far as a Hooker and a Taco? Throw in a six pack of Pharaoh Brown ale and you've got a deal!

Re: Final thoughts on the draft

In an amazing, totally unexpected move the Saints draft in the eleventh pick of 2017...


me!

When asked, Payton said it was the easiest way to get me to stop bugging him for a free jersey with my name on it.

Everyone will be disappointed because we ended up taking Charles Harris at 11.

Forgive my ignorance but what's wrong with Charles Harris?

Nothing really... There just hasn't been any hype around here about him so it would be a little bit of a surprise.

He is a good player if you ask me. Has a good "get off" & hustle. The Saints FO could see him as the compliment to Jordan that we've missed over the years. I'm not sure what we ranked last season on 3rd down however I bet it wasn't very good so quite naturally Sean wants someone who can "disrupt the passer". Harris wouldn't be my favorite pick at #11, but it's hard to ignore the pass rushers and production Missou puts out at the NFL level.


I'm sure Jeff Ireland and co have done their homework.
