DT
1st round (if he is there... he won't be)
Javon Kinlaw, DT, South Carolina
Height: 6-5. Weight: 315. Arm: 34.5. Hand: 10.13.
Projected 40 Time: 5.10.
Projected Round (2020): Top-20.
4/22/20: Kinlaw was superb for the Gamecocks in 2019, totaling 35 tackles with six sacks and two passes defended. In 2018, he had 4.5 sacks, 38 tackles and five passes batted.

or late--

DaVon Hamilton, DT, Ohio State
Height: 6-3. Weight: 327. Arm: 32.88. Hand: 9.88.
40 Time: 5.14.
Projected Round (2020): 3-5.
4/22/20: Hamilton was a dangerous interior pass-rusher as a senior in 2019, recording 28 tackle with six sacks. Over the previous three seasons, he had one sack and 38 tackles as a rotational backup.

At LB--

K'Lavon Chaisson*, OLB/DE, LSU
Height: 6-4. Weight: 254. Arm: 32.25. Hand: 9.88.
Projected 40 Time: 4.69.
Projected Round (2020): 1.
4/22/20: Chaisson has a lot of upside to fill out his frame and develop into a dangerous edge rusher. He is fast, long, and athletic on the edge. In 2019, he had 60 tackles with 6.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and two passes broken up while dealing with an ankle injury. Chaisson missed almost all of his 2018 season with a knee injury. In 2017, he had 27 tackles with two sacks and two passes batted. For today's NFL, Chaisson is a valuable commodity because he is a lightning-fast edge rusher and a twitchy athlete. Chaisson is quick off the ball with a fast first-step. He has a burst to run around the corner and a second gear to close on the quarterback. On top of being a pure speed rusher, Chaisson has an impressive arsenal of pass-rushing moves.

or late at SLB--

Anfernee Jennings, OLB/ILB, Alabama
Height: 6-1. Weight: 252. Arm: 32.75. Hand: 9.38.
Projected 40 Time: 4.63.
Projected Round (2020): 3-5.
4/22/20: Jennings recorded 83 tackles, eight sacks, five passes defended, one interception and a forced fumble in 2019. He is a dangerous blitzer who is a solid run defender in the middle of the field. Jennings has some limitations for the next level, but he could be a solid rotational backup.

All solid picks.

I posted a quick analysis on Anfernee a few days ago. He could be a golden pick in the middle rounds. He's a dawg and hates QB's.

The Kinlaw kid ... looks like the real deal and created a lot of disruption. He's as talented as Nick Fairley was coming out.

Chaisson ... there has been a ton of chatter around my area that Dallas will take him if he's there when the pick. Some claim he has D Ware potential while others think he's too "raw" in the 1st. Guess we'll find out.

Any legit talent coming from "Thee" Ohio State ... Saints have scouted. No secret we tend to like players coming out of Columbus.

I wonder if Gruden/Mayock were blowing smoke by saying they really like LOVE at QB? Not sure if Gruden is sold on Carr.

Kamara is going to get traded

After last season, it's a possibility. Running back's have like, on average, a 3 or 4 year shelf-life. Depends on his health. He was injured or was not 100% most of last season.

If so, look for the Saints to pick Deandre Swift tonight.

That'd leave only Latavius Murray as the only RB with real game experience in the offense...

Know they did it with Kamara last year letting Ingram inexplicably walk, but has Sean learned his lesson?

If they do trade kamara lets say for a second rounder and maybe a third they could draft edwards-helaire with it. He has a similar style. But with that 24th pick i want queen. That kid has upside out the arse.

Brees told Clyde Edwards to his face that he looks exactly like Ingram in the Saints (Brady) offense they employed at LSU last season...

Edwards swole up with pride and emotion when it happened...

	The Saints are 0-42 when running the ball less than 15 times in a game.
