Ole Miss WR D.K. Metcalf at 6' 4", 224 lbs. (1.9% body fat) is an absolute unit!

He has Raiders written all over him.

So glad Sean traded nearly everything away so we wouldn't have to worry about being tempted to draft guys like this...

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

Precisely.

Having speed is great and all but you must have mastery of the route tree at this level of football.

I'd argue his former team mate at Ole Miss Demarkus Lodge (was impressive here in Dallas/Cedar Hill High) is a more proven/polished route runner.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

I'll take THE Ohio State Parris Campbell off my WR list ...

Ran a 4.31 40.

To put that into perspective .. Tyreek "Cheetah" Hill ran 4.28 at his Pro Day.

I think one guy we could take a flier on in the late rounds as a possible successor to Brees is Trace McSorley. He is very passionate and seems like a good leader. He has enough physical tools to work with and could be very coach-able. Just have a good gut feeling on him.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

I love the idea of picking Benny Snell, I can’t lie.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

Patient runner with power.

I could see him as a possible every down back at the next level.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

DK Metcalf’s 3-cone and shuttle times were pretty bad though surprisingly (7.38 and 4.50 respectively.)

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

I would is we lose Ingram. I'm leaning toward Hochensten or Isabella if we stay at #62 If we trade up it will be for DT, TE (Fant) or QB. If we trade up we will trade our 1st next year for a mid 2nd and early 3rd this year then pick the best players available from those positions or package them all to move up to about #15 for one of the best players at those positions.

I will either be totally frustrated or happy as hell because there is no in between with Payton.

And yet we were almost in the Super Bowl. After a grueling regular season schedule, a host of injuries to starting lineman. I get that SP swings and missed (who doesnt?) but his misses are closer to the foul pole than before.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

I still hate the NFL cuz its rigged but just in case I end up watching again the Saints should draft Greedy Williams and Foster Moreau from LSU. Devin White would be a great pick but he'll be gone in the first 30 min of the draft. Greedy might be gone that quick too actually. Yes. LSU might have had the best LB and the best DB in the nation last year. If we can't get them, we're weak at TE and Foster Moreau could be a late round steal. And yes Danno we should look at Irv Smith Jr too.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

Deuce ran a 4.4 at the combine and was like 230 lbs. Some mock drafts had Deuce as the #1 pick in the draft. We picked him with the 23rd pick with Ricky Williams on the team. I like Benny Snell, but he's not Deuce.

Sean Payton: Trace McSorley could be the next Julian Edelman

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...ulian-edelman/

Saints coach Sean Payton told Peter King for Football Morning in America that McSorley reminds him of Julian Edelman, a three-year starting quarterback at Kent State who became a seventh-round pick of the Patriots in 2009 and is now the reigning Super Bowl MVP.

“When I looked at him, my first thought was, ‘I wonder if he can be Edelman?’ I wondered if he could be a versatile kind of guy,” Payton said.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

Saw some highlights from his combine ... Trace's arm strength was a bit lacking & looked rather "smallest" standing next to some of those other QB's.

If it doesn't work out with Plan A (QB), it's nice to know that a HC of Sean's caliber see traits of Julian in you as a slot WR. That could take you a long way if he puts in work. I actually see it as a compliment from Payton.

The good to above average coaches see things in players that the average joe will never see on the football field. See Bill Belichick.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

Another LSU Tiger ... Greedy Williams runs a 4.38 (top performer) 40 at the combine. What he did well is turning his hips and head around for the ball while in flight. In today's passing league, that's an important skill set to have.

I'll be critical here though ... he needs to hit the weight room hard this off season. He is a tad bit on the slim side. Adding a little bulk will do his body good. Lots of strong, physical WR's he'll be going up against each week.

He's definitely gone on Day 1 though.

Report: Saints 'enamored' with receivers in 2019 draft class

https://saintswire.usatoday.com/2019...mpression=true

New Orleans still likes its younger receivers, particularly Keith Kirkwood. Plus, the Saints are enamored with the depth of this year’s draft class. A receiver could easily be in play with the team’s first pick, at No. 62 overall, late in the second round.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft Prospects (NFL Combine)
 

Been a while since i posted here. But as always...back around draft time. Emanuel Hall solidified what i saw on tape with his combine performance. Greg Dortch is one of my favorite options at WR late in the draft. Size(5’7) will keep him down but he’s everything sean thinks he has in Tommylee Lewis. Great tape at Wake Forest and could surprise if he lands with the right team. Amani Oruwariye is probably my favorite round 2 corner and Isaiah Johnson probably moved up somewhere in day 2. Have so many prospects i like. Finished up my top 300 whiteboard this week i do every year. Getting excited...just wish we had more than 1 pick in the first 4 rounds. Hopefully ol’ Sean holds true in his “draft picks are easy to get” comment.

I fully expect them to move up into the early/mid 2nd if there is someone in their cloud still sitting there. 1st round is probably not gonna happen but adding a 3rd or 4th is probably likely.

I recently read Hall was diagnosed with a sports hernia.

Hopefully he will be healed by his college Pro Day.
