Tull had a high sack count and didn't last a year with us.
I felt the same and I think almost everyone felt better with a DE with that 11 as A but a CB is very close to that need, like 1a so mew...I'm fine with it.

I get the sense staff believes the DL is going to make us money as is and nothing available would have improved it much so we go with a DB. Interesting stat on Marshon, better for a QB to throw that ball in the ground that send it his way. If that materializes we are making the playoffs and some.

Either they need to shut down their athletic programs or they need to be willing to make exceptions for any of these athletes who want to try to turn pro. Especially if the kid gets drafted. Now this young man will probably never get another shot in the NFL. The odds are already stacked against you coming from such a program and now you have to do 2 years active duty before you can even think of football again. By then he won't even be an afterthought anymore.
This guy doesn't get it...

Not everything in life is about money.

Just my opinion. Feel free to ignore it. Truth of the matter is, and not that I expect anyone to give a ****, but my life has gone to **** and I don't really have anything positive to say about anything. Judge me all you want, I don't really give a ****

Good, not great.

Only 2 immediate impact players picked up, the others will add depth and could be future starters. I think we left a few guys on the table at DE, but overall not bad.

Would be great to see some deal reached on Sheldon Richardson before the season. That move would easily put us over the top.

You don't have to love one or the other. A mans will to serve his country and yet have love for the game shouldn't be ignored. Hell you have football players leaving the NFL to go serve their country. Those guys are hero's and they serve with honor and dignity. If they want to play football then we should go out of our way to make it available to them.

Never say anything negative for guys who are willing to go out there and put their life on the line so you can sit there and watch a game.

Holy cow, Mayock loves Kamara even more than Payton! I was actually not too upset about the pick because at least we kept our other 2 third-rounders. I still think we could use a little help at receiver and really think if we signed Anquan Boldin it would be a great fit.

Boldin had his chance last year but obviously he wanted to play with Detroit instead.

See link below regarding Kamara and how dynamic he could potentially be in NO.
Alvin Kamara could bring an old element back to the Saints' offense | Saints | theadvocate.com
