how do you know this? They could very well have Austin ranked significantly higher than these guys...or the reverse.


Here's why:

Saints’ defense sets record for most yards allowed in a season

2012 Saints defense becomes worst in NFL history

New Orleans Saints set record: Worst defense in NFL history

For every mock draft you can give me that has Austin ranked higher than any of the guys I mentioned, I'll give you 10 that don't.

If the Saints pick a WR with the 15th pick considering what happened with the defense last season, we'll be the laughing stock of the entire league...that's called common sense.

and these mocks have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the Saints big board. It's a frickING MOCK DRAFT ON A WEBSITE. Thank God they don't base their assessments on players based off of some blogger.

also pretty sure Sean Payton couldn't give a single frick.

Again...just because some mock draft has these guys all in the same area doesn't mean the Saints...or ANY team in the nfl has them viewed as equals. They could have the pass rushers ranked in the top 5-10...or they could have them in the late 20s/2nd round. The same for Austin. WE SIMPLY DO NOT KNOW. Just because YOU perceive them as equal value does not mean any legitimate personnel guy does.
