Did Saints reach for Florida State's Rick Leonard? Agent: New Orleans outmaneuvered competition

And look as much as I disliked our first three picks, I'll be fair and put some perspective and context on this...

We could have been Seattle who nearly took Rashaad Penny where they were originally slotted...

Time will tell, but a little insight on Penny adjusting to the NFL...

While I was scouting TE David Wells for the Saints, he was used almost always as a blocker...

The Aztecs made sure that Penny didn't (and was often the case) receive contact until he was already two yards over the line of scrimmage...

San Diego State often lined up in heavy packages, even with an extra tackle, to power the ball downfield...

Am curious to see if Penny has success with the rebuilding project, dumpster fire of an offensive line the Seahawks have...

So as much as I disliked our first three picks, moves - it could be worse for those who disliked the Saints' 2018 draft haul...

	It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way... Last edited by jeanpierre; 05-01-2018 at 10:36 AM..
