Who Should the Saints Draft in 1st Round?
I've been looking at possible scenarios for the saints first round picks and was curious what other fans think.
Trufant or Woolfolk (do we even need a young corner anymore, if so which one?). E. J. Henderson seems like an obvious choice if available. To me he is the closest linebacker to MR. RAY LEWIS to enter the draft in years as far as toughness and sheer tackling.(remember Lewis was picked with the 26th pick when he came out). Even if he isn't Ray, he will be an Al Wilson type. I don't know much about the DT's this year but I've been impressed with what I've heard about Kevin Williams of Oklahoma St. The only one I really watched this year was William Joseph, and in my opinion he is much too talented to be around at 17. Who else would be logical? What other positions are possibilities? My sleeper pick(that will never happen) is Rex Grossman. If they adress their defensive needs in FA and use one of the picks for D, then why not grab him or Boller? As a middle first round pick, he won't command too hefty of a contract like Aaron Brooks has. If Aaron doesn't pan out, with his high cap number, the Saints will have to cut him. Then the Saints would have a talented young option that would be familiar with the system to fill in. My final thought, If Willis McGahee is available in the 2nd or 3rd Round should the Saints pick him? With Deuce there is no pressure on him to play in the upcoming season, and when he heals he could easily command a First Round pick in 2004 or 2005. |
