Still want Treadwell and think he should be the pick.

This offense doesn't lack speed, it lacks physicality. There's no confidence in our receivers ability to win 1 on 1 outside when the defender is in their grill. Treadwell fixes that.

Treadwell is too slow to be worthy of a pick at 12, hes too slow!

The love may be lost for now, but next year when it's Brees to treadwell for a TD, he will be loved again.

I've been watching the show on ESPN following some of the draft picks, Treadwell being one of them. I didn't realize he did so poorly on pretty much everything, but catching the ball in the combine/pro day.

I still think he'll be good, but I think there is potential value at WR later in the draft. Please make our defense less shitty first.

its a pretty meh class of WRs. The ones I like are too early to take at 12, but will be gone by our next pick.

Braxton would be interesting in rd 3. Still pretty raw at WR, but a good enough athlete to where he could eventually way outperform his draft slot.

While our defense continues to get gashed or Brees just gets crushed all year again

I love Treadwell.

But I hate him at our 12th pick.

This is why we trade back to 20 and pick him up there. Use the extra second rounder that trade will get us and take more DL.

Or use the additional pick to address DL and the Guard position

I'm still hoping we get him, and wouldn't mind either 12 or trading back a bit and getting him. A few reasons:

1. Backfill Colston
2. Very deep D draft
3. The days of Brees making any receiver look good are coming to an end sooner than later.

I like Treadwell. But there was a reason Julio went 6 overall.

If Treadwell had his combine numbers he'd be a top 10 pick

With an at best average receiving core Brees once again led a top 5 offense. The needs are on the defensive side of the ball. The offense would benefit more from getting good field position unlike last year when it seemed we were always getting the ball on our own 20

The offense wasn't as good as the stats implied

They also said that about Kelvin Benjamin some guys just have what is called football speed and that doesn't always translate to a good 40 time.
