Bryan Edwards - WR South Carolina

Size (same as Mike Thomas), good route runner & strong. Doesn't get a lot of hype as some of the others but his ability could translate at the next level. Has played against stiff SEC defenses & has done well.

Could be a "sleeper" pick.

I think Bama WR Henry Ruggs will still be on the board @ #24.

Kind of wonder what Sean Payton is thinking here ... will he go DL, RB, QB or OL ? Some "mocks" have him taking a WR ...

The combine and Pro Day will be telling for a lot of these players.

Devin Duvernay - WR Texas

Thought I'd bring him back because Devin's name has been mentioned more than a couple of times by scouts.

Not a big guy (5-11) however he makes up for it with his speed. Former track guy who has a lot of power & the ability to win a lot of those 50/50 balls. Strong hands, is willing to block & has the run after catch ability. Chain mover.

Again, he's a track guy so I'm watching him at the combine 40.

Best tape (12 catches) 2019 - LSU

As a Longhorns fan I think Devin's greatest asset are his hands. His speed is decent, but at heart he is a catch-everything guy ... a Lance Moore type with a higher ceiling and a bit more athletic. My main question is the quality of route running and getting open at the next level.

Yessir.

I felt the same way about Trequan (getting open in the NFL) coming out of college. Devin's size is a bit misleading ... very powerful lower body & as you stated .. "powerful" hands.

The combine and subsequent Pro Day at UT awaits.

And the f*ck-f*ck mind games are underway...

So we all know by now that the Saints will never shy away from trading future 1st or 2nd round picks to go get their guy. Is their a guy you would trade next year’s 1st rounder to go get?

For the record, I know it’s a terrible idea to trade future 1st’s for anything other than a QB, but the Saints don’t care.

I’m thinking if LB Isaiah Simmons fell to 10 or lower we could make a move a la the Steelers last year for Devin Bush. I’d be ok with that.

This would be awesome! I’d be pretty happy.
