He is by no means just a "feel good story" ... he is a baller & has unique skills. Would I take a flyer on him in the later rounds? Absolutely. |

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
I cant seem to move off of taking LB Rashaan Evans with our first round pick if hes still there. Hes just too good of value at a position of need. I know we have Craig Robertson and Alex Anzalone playing weak side LB but I just cant pass up Rashaan Evans because of them.

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
Josey Jewell and Tegray Scales are nice options in the 3rd-4th round. Havent really looked into Taven Bryan much.

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
Wynn was Pancaking everyone he went against. Would love to add him to the fold. Probably a 2nd rd pick which we dont have.

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
Amen! Id be very, very tempted to take him at 27 and plug him in at LG while kicking Peat out to LT. He would be a slight reach in the first round but thats kind of subjective. I dont think you can go wrong reinforcing the trenches with great players like him.
