this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I am feel much better about Watson than Fincher. While many said he could be a sleeper and suprise alot of people, let\'s not forget that he was projected by nearly every site to be a fifth or sixth round ...

Saints and the draft pick I love.
I am feel much better about Watson than Fincher. While many said he could be a sleeper and suprise alot of people, let\'s not forget that he was projected by nearly every site to be a fifth or sixth round pick. While I am not sold on Watson either, I would feel much better if he started the year at MLB.

Saints and the draft pick I love.
Fincher: 3rd Rd Pick, 6\'1\", 241 lbs, 4.76 in the 40. Press ?, 400 Max Press, 545 squat.
Watson: 2nd Rd Pick, 6\'1\", 237 lbs, 4.56 in the 40. Press 225 22 times, 365 Max Press, 500 squat. Watson is up to 246 lbs, and who knows what a year of NFL weight training has done for him? I guess, your gut may be right, but I don\'t see a good reason to think that Fincher will be more relaible (better?) than Watson at MLB. In fact, Watson is faster - something you value highly in a MLB. I like Fincher at SLB instead of Allen, Watson at MLB, and Bockwoldt at WLB. However, I\'d like to see these guy play a few more snaps before I start making substantial judgements. I like what I hear about Fincher, don\'t get me wrong. I guess I don\'t know what to say about your gut on this one. |

You have to admit, whether you like the pick or not, Fincher seems like he is ready to go. I think he wants to come in and be a leader and help the team win. I think he\'s got a lot of heart. It\'ll be interesting to see what he can do.
