Re: My thought on the 2018 draft
I don't know about you but I'm always down after the NFL draft,I see where we passed on a player that I had a vision for. We didn't address a certain position or pick some player I hadn't heard of. All of us obsessing fans have to face the fact that we are amateurs and these other guys are the pros .I don't think that we are ignorant of that we are wrong. The personnel people are wrong often but they are better informed than me and you. Some of the players we picked will exceed our expectations and other will not. This happens on every team.
I am excited to see how it all plays out We all need to just relax and enjoy what will be a interesting training camp It is just a game It is just a game It is just a game WHO DAT |

Re: My thought on the 2018 draft
Where the saints failed was in not being able to fill needs at TE,DT,LB.

As for linebacker, the addition of Mario Davis could very well be more important than any LB we could have drafted. We still have A.J. Klien, who looked great, as well as Anzalone, Te'o, Craig Robertson, Stupar, Mauti and Kikaha on the squad. There is a lot of speed in that group. And don't forget we have DL coach Ryan Neilsen and LB coach Mike Nolan now in their second year.
What we really needed more was depth on the offensive line and improvement to the special teams. Those more dire needs were very well addressed. |
