No problem, it's definitely confusing, but I think I got it covered. Appreciate you acknowledging it and thank you for your appreciation

I wish I knew the names of the draft prospects in the others categories

Our highest percentage is actually "others"

As is Buffalo's
Buffalo has "others" leading the way with 41.4%
And then QB DeShaun Watson second with 29.3%
And WR Mike Williams third with 17.2%

The Saints have "others" as our highest percentage pick with 31%

Then a tie at second highest percentage between DE Solomon Thomas and DE Derek Barnett at 13.8%
And DE Taco Charlton at fourth higest with 12.1%
Then another tie at fifth highest percentage with both
LB Rueben Foster (who is already picked in this mock) &
CB Sidney Jones at 8.6%

And then at seventh highest percentage is CB Marshon Lattimore with 6.9% but he is already gone as well in this mock which is probably why his percentage is so low because he is probably already picked in most of the mocks they used for this data

And our last and lowest percentage is CB Quincy Wilson with 5.2% in the eighth spot

But I don't know how to see the names in the "others" category but it is probably a good bit of names mixed up to make that category so I'm assuming that we have a tie for our pick with Derek Barnett and Solomon Thomas getting the most selections in our slot so therefore in this mock

With the 11th pick in the 2017 NFL draft (I can hear Roger Goodell gettin booed in my head,haha) the New Orleans Saints select
Derek Barnett or Solomon Thomas

One thing for sure is that they have Defensive End as our biggest need then Corner Back as our second biggest need

I think the biggest unknown that could mess things up, is if the teams wanting QBs decide they are ok if they sign RG3 or Romo instead and go take unexpected picks in those spots ahead of us, or if everyone just decides not to take any QBs that high.

that could really mess up our chances of getting Thomas or barnette even though I think its a stretch we get any chance at Thomas still being there at 11
