Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
Dislocated kneecap and torn ACL in his left knee (Sept. 2014) as a senior in high school, requiring immediate surgery and near amputation; suffered a torn meniscus in his left knee (Sept. 2016), requiring surgery.
With that being said, his explosiveness hasn’t suffered: 40 Yd Dash: 4.53 Vertical: 39.5” 3 Cone: 6.95 |

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
Lol.
Believe it or not, Coach "O" had reported Key weighed in as much as 270 lbs back in October 2017, then down to his target of 250. Now he's at 238 or so? His conditioning and nutrition appears to be all out of whack. Red flags galore for NFL scouts. |

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
If I had a choice, I would choose the athleticism of Payne over Vea. Some of the things Da'Ron did in the trenches for Alabama was freakish. His hand movement is good too. I think he will be even better in the NFL than college.
You never know how to predict who will slide down in the draft but if he's there at 27 ... |

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
I keep coming back to Christian Kirk when thinking about WR’s. Plug him into the slot from day one and he and Mike will be deadly.

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints
For the superstitious guys ...
Ramczyk - had a formal @ combine with the Saints. AK 47 - had a formal @ combine with the Saints & met w/Payton / work him out exclusively at TN Pro day. Williams - Pro Day meeting & dinner. Lattimore - had a formal @ combine with Saints. Man that's 4 draft picks from 2017. Now fast forward to 2018 ... ALL HAD FORMALS @ COMBINE w/Saints ... QB Baker Mayfield, Oklahoma QB Josh Rosen, UCLA WR Dante Pettis, Washington TE Dallas Goedert, South Dakota State TE Mark Andrews, Oklahoma DT Vita Vea, Washington LB Leighton Vander Esch, Boise State LB Lorenzo Carter, Georgia CB Jaire Alexander, Louisville You never know ... just saying . |
