Any favorite LB’s in the draft? I’m liking Tremaine Edmunds (brother of our own Trey Edmunds.) Tremaine Edmunds*, OLB, Virginia Tech Height: 6-5. Weight: 236. Projected 40 Time: 4.71. Projected Round (2018): 1-3 |

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
I’m interested to see how much Arden Key’s draft stock has fallen. Once a sure fire top 5 pick, he could provide a ton of value if he falls into the back end of the first round. I can’t remember the last time we had two legitimate double digit sack threats.

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
What’s his story? There’s rumors that he has Randy Gregory-type drug issues.

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
I’m not positive. Family issues I think... he might have had a kid too but don’t hold me to that. But if it was drugs, it wouldn’t be too surprising either. We’ve had rampant issues with that down in Baton Rouge over the years.

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
If not addressed in FA we have got to go cb in rd 1. PJ is trash and cost us bigtime. I know breaux might be coming back but with his injury history you can’t rely on him. With no second rd pick cb in rd1 is huge.

IDK, there are quite a few more consistent Bama/Georgia guys I would look at over Key. |

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
Sometimes I wonder if some of you seasons begin and end with the draft. Those guys played their dayum hearts out and the 1 st thing some of you do is complain and look for replacements during the season and playoffs. This is not tecmo bowl where you can line up all stars. The season is over every single guy on the roster deserve to be on this team. Manti teo played unbelievable.
