Can never please everyone.

Reckon this kid will be superb for us. Our secondary is pretty ordinary. Lattimore will be a great addition.

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Up the roids since he is in Nfl, change the coke to Herroin ...Al Pro

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

he's an athlete, I will always take that. Kid is freaking fast. Just got to keep the hammies running smooth, whatever they have to do, do it

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Think we should have gone for Barnett.

He plays mean, our D line needs that attitude.

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

DB'S HAS TO MAKE OUR DEFENSE BETTER?, maybe payton thinking same on that pick, i'm not happy with pick but i'm never right anyway so it maybe great pick on my luck.

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

He has played 1.5 games in two years. How do you call that great? lol

Didn't PJ drop to the 5th for us due to injuries?

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Thats the minority thinking in here tonight apparently. Guess everyone forgot how sh!t our pass rush has been and how often our dbs are injured. So we draft the most injury prone upside player and most are excited. Im in the twilight zone.

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion

He is DAs project now.

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

WAIT STOP. Back up. The board is going too fast. What ? WTF?
Can I spell that out ...What The ***c?

Did I hear cocaine?
:bugeyes:

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Hate to say it but with our recent luck, had we signed Lester Hayes.... he'd be hurt after second scrimmage of training camp. Just sayin'.

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Did Lattimore miss a game last year?


Or did he miss games due to muscle injuries at an age when most men are going through a growth spurt


I say most as it seemed to forget my 5'7 ass

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

It was pure sarcasm. You making me laugh now :p

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

always better clean injury history, agreed. I think his athletic ability and talent made it hard to pass on due to where he dropped. Plus think Benson just added more bikes on the sidelines and he doesnt want them to go to waste

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Gotta get hyped

Its pulling these tapes for the UDFA i like best

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Problem is you get hyped and after this weekend remember its 16 weeks till preseason

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Players i am looking out for is;

Taco Charlton
Charles Harris

Obi Melifonwu

Curtis Samuel

Fabian Moreau

O J Howard

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Can we let Lattimore get in some real time practice/contact before the sky starts to fall?? I think it's comical that we got the best corner back in the draft yet many are already complaining.

R E L A X.

Re: Saints NFL 2017 Draft Days In Game Discussion
 

Marlon Humphrey is off the board...so much for that pipe dream at 32...

Saints fill major need with top-rated cornerback Marshon Lattimore

Offensive players unexpectedly flew off the board in the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday night. The New Orleans Saints' brass likely threw a party with every name announced.

This left the Saints with too many defensive players from which to choose at No. 11 overall. Craziness.

And the Saints made the smart pick by taking Ohio State cornerback Marshon Lattimore, the consensus top cornerback in this year's draft class.


Drafting Lattimore helps fill a major position of need. This should also end any thought of trading for Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler.

Well done, Saints. Well done.

I understand the injury concerns involving Lattimore. The 6-foot, 193-pound cornerback missed much of his college career with hamstring injuries. That's a scary proposition for any NFL player, much less a cornerback. This also means he was only a full-time starter last year for the Buckeyes.

But this should tell you how good Lattimore was last season to be rated the consensus top cornerback in this draft. He picked off four passes with Ohio State his redshirt sophomore season and broke up nine passes.

In NFL.com's draft evaluation, an AFC pro personnel director described Lattimore this way: "I've studied the top cornerbacks coming out and he's the best I've seen. He's so athletic that he can just post up under the receiver's chin and shadow him all over the field. And he's tough, too. He'll be one of the top cornerbacks pretty quickly."

Given how unbelievably awful the Saints' pass defense has been the past few years, having a chance to select the best cornerback in the draft is a no-brainer.

It still wouldn't stun me in the least if the Saints drafted another cornerback or even traded for a veteran (probably not Butler). Sean Payton said leading up to this draft the Saints needed multiple corners. A healthy Delvin Breaux and P.J. Williams plus Lattimore and another cornerback? The Saints would be in good shape in the secondary.

The Saints' brass had to be doing backflips as Lattimore fell to them. Deservedly so.
