Obi's a SS? I thought he was a DE.

With a mental problem and a torn shoulder. Cunningham will be better and should be there at 45. Willis would be my pick. We have good luck with the de position from Kansas st

Are you kidding me???? There is probably 5-7 left that could start for us from day one! The best de in the draft, Willis, is still out there. We get Willis and then we Kupp in the 3rd I will do back flips

New Orleans Saints: Marshon Lattimore, CB, Ohio State: A- Grade
The Saints are getting the best cornerback in the 2017 NFL Draft at No. 11. That's pretty good, although I thought Lattimore was going to be chosen 10th overall, so it's not like this is crazy value. It does seem like a great pick, however. Lattimore has some injury concerns, but he's a terrific talent, and he should be able to provide a huge boost for the Saints and their abysmal secondary. The Saints are definitely taking advantage of some of the stupid teams atop this draft.
...
New Orleans Saints: Ryan Ramczyk, OT, Wisconsin: D Grade
This pick received a ton of praise on TV, but I don't agree with it. Not one bit. Ryan Ramczyk has major injury concerns with his hip, and he quit on football once in his life. That makes him a big risk. He also doesn't fill a major need. Sure, the Saints could use a right tackle for the future, but Ramczyk isn't projected to play right away. Drew Brees doesn't have much time left, so New Orleans should've added more to its defense.

That certainly explains a lot...

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion

Good morning fellas! I purposely stayed off social media last night and just sat back and enjoyed the first round. I could not be happier with how things played out! Lattimore and Ramczyk were absolutely perfect picks!

Lots of edge rushers with starter potential still available so be patient guys. We're doing great so far.

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion

I am just one of those people that think you always take the best talent available and that will help you much more than drafting for need. I liked what we did with our first two picks. No way to know if either will pan out, but they were good picks based off of where we were at and the situations surrounding all of that. I love offensive lineman. People on here have complained about how the Cowboys didn't get the sexy picks over the years but built their oline. Now we are doing the same and people are complaining. Being able to control the clock is also helpful to your D while they build to get better. I like these picks. If lattimore is over the hammies then man that kid looks like he could be really good

And look- at least we didn't draft a guy we never heard of out of the Nigerian semi-pro league.

Your team stinks

one other good thing was the recent layoffs at ESPN, means their product is being recognized as garbage and they're losing money. Thank God. I don't even watch them anymore
