Take the second round pick for Peat and draft a distinguised interior lineman...

Doubt Nelson falls past where former Notre Dame Guard Zach Martin went in the 2014 NFL Draft, Pick 16, Dallas...

But then again, haven't seen guards go in the Top 25 since 2014...

I am not there yet with Peat but for a few years now I have pondered the replacement of Terron Armstead

2018 OT crop looks yo be a pretty deep and solid group

Round 4/5 ?
Spain Bentley OT/OG N Carolina 6056 300 5.04 #75 Sr

Spain has length and athleticism but needs to get some pro coaching and weight room training. A swing tackle that can potentially take over?

Round 5/6/7/UDFA
Austin Golson C/OG/OT Auburn 6043 312 5.23 #73 rSr
Mr Versatility: Golson has played all five positions on the line during his career

Sounds like a slightly younger, cheaper version of Senio Kelemete ?

Re: 2018 NFL Draft Prospects - Saints

Todd McShay has released his first 2018 mock draft. With the 28th pick the New Orleans Saints select...

Maurice Hurst, DT, Michigan
Height: 6-2. Weight: 282.
Projected 40 Time: 4.95.
Projected Round (2018): 1-3.

Just for reference I went back to see what he predicted for us in his first one last year and he had us taking CB Marlon Humphrey @ 8.

Nice. I'll give Todd style points on last year's prediction/pick. At least he got the position correct .

Problem is that we don’t need another small DT. What we need is a big, stout block-eater. I like Hagan’s idea of signing DaQuan Jones (6-4, 322 lbs) in free agency.
