Aaron Brooks anyone?

Write it down, Allen will be the best out of this draft class. He is the next luck or Big Ben. Dudes skills are insane.

Aaron Brooks had an absolute cannon. I watched him win the long ball contest at a QB challenge one year throwing the ball 78 yds. Aaron Brooks had a cannon he just had a long windup and slow release. Personally, I say Taysom Hill is bigger and just as fast as Lamar Jackson. Why draft Lamar Jackson when we've got a similair athlete on the roster already?

Serious accuracy issues with this guy. Jemarcus Russel was a better passer in college.

In no scenario would I be ok with drafting Lamar Jackson. It will end up being a wasted pick.

RailBoss · 03-30-2018, 01:43 AM

I would pass...

Strong arm. Amazing athlete.

But... weird mechanics. inaccurate passer. Never looked like a game changer in the big matchups.

He’ll definitely be there at 27 because he needs time to develop. I’m hoping we nab a player who can be a day 1 starter.

He has accuracy issues but I'm not worried about him learning the playbook. Bobby Patrino has a complex playbook. I Hate Louisville because I am a Kentucky fan but this kids skills are crazy. His character is top notch and his offensive line sucked badly. My only worry is accuracy and mid range passes.

Pass on QB this year. The ones at the top aren’t worth being selected there.
Darnold is a turnover machine, Allen misses open receivers, Rosen will more than likely be injured more than he plays.

Drafting Jackson assures we won't hold onto Manziel if the saints sign him. That might be the only reason I would want Jackson to be drafted.

Why Manziel? He could never read defenses while with Cleveland, has a below average arm and mentally he hasn't shown that he can handle the NFL. Try to master the CFL first.

The Saints simply don't need the media circus. We're trying to win another Super Bowl.
