Co-Biggest Surprise in the Draft: QB Daniel Jones in the First AND D.K. Metcalf not selected in first round - WOW!!!

Zach Allen is the “situational” guy Payton referred to

D.K. Metcalf is an average WR at best. Yes he ran a fast 40 time but the rest of his drills were average at best. I always thought he was middle 2nd round...pick 40-50...

RB Brice Love (3rd Day)

Guy stays injured. I wouldn't touch him but the Saints have a history of selecting injury prone guys so there's that.

+1.

I thought DeMarkus Lodge and AJ Brown were clearly the better route runners on the Ole Miss team. Not surprised Metcalf wasn't selected on Day 1. Just watch his tape.

A.J. Brown is who I’m hoping can fell to us. He’s a beast in the slot and an excellent route runner. He reminds of the old man in Arizona.

He's going to be a colossal bust. David Boston 2.0

David Boston was a monster on the football field. Injuries and drugs are what did him in.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft
 
Keep reading how unhealthy D.K. Metcalf's low body fat composition is - Usually in 999,999 out of 1M cases it's the other way around...

Of course, if you can't catch and can't handle physicality, your name is Renaldo Nehemiah. Jerry Rice's 40 was something like 4.7 sec but caught everything (and sometime's others) intended passes...

foreverfan 04-26-2019 11:37 AM

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft
 
We need a big WR in the 2nd round. :bng:
Looks like Michael Thomas catching the ball.

WR - JJ Arcega-Whiteside 6-2 225 40-4.49
Jose Joaquin Arcega-Whiteside was born in Spain to two professional basketball players. Not surprisingly given his athletic genes, he was also all-state in basketball and finished in fourth place in the 100 meters at the 2014 state track meet.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft
 
I'm really not crazy about taking a WR in the second round as deep and talented as this draft is at that position...

Defensive End, Corner back, Starting Guard, Safety are what I'm looking to add...

And I don't trust a guy with two last names...

I’m with you. Everybody knows we need another reliable target opposite Michael Thomas because last season we had rookies pushed into a bigger role than they could handle. The thing is- how does relying on another rookie WR this year fix that problem?

I’m looking for D-Line or O-Line today. Michael Deiter would be a dream pick. Any D-Lineman would be fine... Not too picky about that.

This guy has hands like Michael Thomas. I just was giving a WR player to consider. I know we only have a 2% chance of drafting him.

Drafting a safety in the 2nd round or simply drafting one overall?

Did anybody watch that video above of Jose Joaquin Arcega-Whiteside catching the ball? He looks like Michael Thomas and Jimmy Graham.

As much as I agree that those positions need addressing, the team failed last year because the offense couldn't convert in times of need. As soon as teams started taking Kamara and Thomas out of the game, we relied on guys like Kirkwood, Tre'Quan, Carr, Lewis and Arnold - who all proved that they could not compete come playoff time.

Only guy that helped us was Ted Ginn, but those guys had a ton of opportunities to be "the" guy in crunch time and failed.

That's why I think another WR is very high on our list of needs.

Yes. And there's something to be said about football players who were basketball players as well.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft
 
OK here's my updated first pick for the Saints:

Option 1

We pick Parris Campbell, WR, Ohio State

Option 2

We pick Irv Smith, TE, Alabama

and no trade up. It would cost us too much and the picks will be worth a lot more to us in 2020.

K Major 04-26-2019 01:33 PM

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft
 
Yeah I've ready good things about J.J.

Any player with complete body control to catch & when the ball is in the air, they win most of the battles.

Who in their right mind wouldn't want 2 MICHAEL THOMAS (JJ looks the part) on the same team at WR come playoff time???

Circle back to the NFCCG ... once Talib put the clamps on MT, it was over. He had no help to pick up the slack & keep the chains moving.

CheramieIII 04-26-2019 01:35 PM

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft
 
I don't think JJ will be available but Campbell and Ridley might.

I like Ridley a lot and I won't discount Parris either (assuming they are available). Parris is a good route runner and I'm sure Urban Myer has had lengthy conversations with SPayton on his potential at the next level.

We shall see.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Draft
 
You don't draft positions, you draft players. It may be that every WR left is no better on paper than the ones we currently have under contract.

BEST PROSPECT AVAILABLE!

If it happens to be a WR fine.

I can't think of a position where we wouldn't want to take the best prospect available except Punter, Kicker, and maybe FB?

And make sure the guy doesn't have an injury history.

Who knows, we signed Easton to play centre and then go ahead and draft one anyway.

Classic Payton.

Now THAT’s a darn good pick! Nick Easton stinks... Thank goodness we won’t rely on him.

And we get a 4th rounder too now!
