Keep on eye on this one Chris.

McShay, Cosell & Mayock all have us taking Harris @ 11.

Yep, from seemingly out of nowhere he's become a hot name for our pick. Did someone hear something or is it a smoke screen?

I don't believe it's a smoke screen at all. Harris could be in play depending on who is off the board prior to pick 11.

I'm seeing him gone by 14 in some drafts so not really much of a reach. I'm just gonna have some faith in our new and improved FO this year. Until they do something stupid like pick a QB in the first round -or a "project" in the second...

Isn't Reddick a better pick if he's available? I've read that Harris struggles against the run.

Depending on who is analyzing him. I read a recent article from Mike Detillier saying that he is moving up to the top 10 & Foster falling. If you watch Reddick, this guy can get to the QB on stunts, drop in coverage and spy.

His combine performance certainly didn't hurt his case either. I wish more people would put out his body of work on tape. He can play. Imagine what new LB coach Mike Nolan could do with him?

Damn, is it 7 p.m. yet???

Nobody can "hear" anything. At this point none of the four or so people that have any clue of the Saints plans, which will of course be subject to change, would have any reason to share anything with anyone, other than complete bullcrap.
