I've soured on McKinney. I think he can be a solid LB in the league, just not what we need. He's the least instinctive LB in the main top group (Perryman, Dawson, Kendricks, Anthony). His coverage skills are probably the worst out of all five of them. Not saying he's terrible in coverage just the most sub-par. Sure he's got the athleticism and body scouts drool over but I see him as more of a thumper.
I still like what I see from Dawson. His tape >>>> his combine. He plays with a way faster and is highly instinctive - he just knows where to be and gets there. I read somewhere called him "functionally athletic" and I think that fits him perfect. He's not a track star but his talents translate onto the field. Plus with his combine we might be able to get him in the 2nd if were lucky but I doubt it. I still have faith he can undo the damage he did at the combine on his pro day.
If I had to rank them considering what the Saints need out of a LB and the potential value of where we'd be able to pick them (so one LB could be "better" but a similar talent could be had later or fit better so I'd rank them higer) I'd say my rankings would be:
Dawson
Anthony
Kendricks
McKinney
Perryman

I think we brought in Jeff Ireland because we wanted to have a new perscetive on drafting from him and Parcells. The more I look at the way Ireland and Parcels drafted I think we draft Collins. They held o line in high regards, which they should. So unless something drasticly changes I think we draft Collins

Well the thing with McKinney is that he's so versatile. People say he's not instinctual but he may have had different responsibilities In his defense he was in.
But I agree with meat, IF Beasley, Fowler and Gregory are gone
