Guess we can post any rumors in this thread

quote:

“Two recent draft rumors that feel connected to me: 1) Saints want Jameson Williams 2) Jameson Williams is a top-10 pick. Starting to wonder if someone sees the Saints’ interest, sees their draft capital and planted some rumors angling for a trade.”

The most recent buzz, which, which you can choose to interpret any way you like, is from Albert Breer, in his final MMQB before the draft: “ Well, I’ve heard both Pickett and Corral have fans in the building, but most I’ve talked to believe they’ll use their picks on a receiver (if one of the top four is still there).” It really sounds like you can put your money one pick 16 or 19 being a receiver, unless the Saints decide to trade up. But even in a trade up scenario, they would likely be targeting a receiver or an offensive tackle.

Isn’t Williams coming off a serious injury and not available for a while.
Hard to see anyone picking him top 10, if that’s the case.

Almost every PFF mock I've done had a run on WRs with picks 9-15. I could see a trade up at 13 with Houston to grab Williams or London. Gotta think Philly is in play for a WR at 15. Olave might be there at 16 but that's a risk. In no writer mock or rumor have I heard us trading back.

I do not want to trade our 2 1st round picks to move up to the top 10. I much rather pick at 16 & 19.

trading up for a receiver, in this particular draft, makes no sense... there are a ton of quality receivers, and there's not a doubt in my mind that even if we wait til 49 to go WR, we'd still come out of this draft with an instant starter/impact player...
