Arden recently had surgery on his fingers (partly why he missed the bowl game), gained 15+ pounds this season and was unable to finish strong.

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

Problem is those two guys aren’t in our range unless we move up. Getting our hands on either Smith or Evans would be a dream scenario.

You never know. I didn't think we had any shot at a difference maker tackle OR corner at pick #11 or 32. Both landed in our laps.

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.

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.

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.

We should never stop looking for ways to get better.

Never.
