2020 NFL Draft: Saints Prospects

ChrisXVI · 04-05-2020, 09:02 PM

I really wish I could get some insight on how the coaches view our LB situation and particularly Anzalone’s future. I feel like if Kenneth Murray is on the board at 24 then he’ll be the pick. I think we’ll value Murray over Patrick Queen because of Murray’s prototypical size, experience and the ease in which he could play all three LB spots.

Murray reminds me of Stephone Anthony - checks off the boxes in athleticism, but the instincts are askew; and there's something not right about his interviews...

Like Patrick Queen more, but a) will Sean Payton take a LSU player? and, b) Queen is only 6' 0" tall and that'll lack of length will be a liability, especially for a first round pick...

The more and more I look at Marlon Davidson DT Auburn I really like. Steady improvements since a freshman.

On the Queen, Murray debate … if they both are there at #24, take neither.

The only guy in the 1st round I'd want at LB is Isiah Simmons. Would much rather wait until the third rd and select a linebacker. Even before we selected Stephone, I thought it was a reach in the 1st.

Remember, coach Mike Nolan is gone.

Queen sure looked good late in the season. Caught fire really!! Showed what he could do in primetime to.

Another point, as much as it pains me, but big LBers are going the way of the dinosaur in today's game...

Linebackers in contemporary 4-3 defenses are more of your big Joey Browner Strong Safeties of the past...

And we've got a lot of cap committed to an elite LBer in Demario, so when we go nickel/dime, do you really want a first round pick on the sideline?

So you'd want to commit your first round pick and not another pick until late on Day 2 to a LBer that flashed mid-late season, and I'd agree impressively, but for only one season?

jeanpierre · 04-05-2020, 11:00 PM

Now here's a guy we can bring on behind Anzalone this season; should be there Day 3, maybe late Day 2 if LBers start coming off the board; smart, led an elite defense, creates FFs...
