Round 1 (No. 11), CB Marlon Humphrey, Alabama

At the start of the draft process, Humphrey was widely regarded as one of the top three cornerback prospects, along with Lattimore and Washington's Sidney Jones. As more pundits provided their opinions, other cornerbacks became hot names and started leap Humphrey in the public opinion.

But, Humphrey will be the one who probably goes in the first half of the first round because of his ideal height-weight-speed combination as well as swagger at a position where attitude is necessary. He needs to improve his technique, but at 20 years old, he'll have time to adjust.

Round 1 (No. 32) EDGE T.J. Watt

After grabbing a cornerback with their first pick, the Saints find a pass rusher with their second. Don't compare Watt to his incomparable brother, J.J. T.J. is a much different player, but he has a nose for the ball as well as the ability to rush and cover. The Saints need a dose of speed off the edge, and the younger Watt could provide it.

Round 2 (No. 42 overall): S Josh Jones, N.C. State

This is a name that hasn't really been linked to the Saints through the pre-draft process, but it's one who should be on the radar for fans. Yes, New Orleans brought Rafael Bush back after cutting Jairus Byrd, but it's a cheap one-year deal.

Jones has elite athleticism for a safety, and his aggressive style of play would fit on a Saints team lacking defensive playmakers.

Round 3 (No. 76 overall): DE Tarell Basham, Ohio University

The Saints haven't practiced this in a while, but there's a common saying around the NFL that a team can never have too many pass rushers. Given the depth of pass rushers in the draft, the Saints should take two and try to solve their depth issues for the long haul.

Basham might have a steeper learning curve than guys from bigger conferences than the MAC, but he has potential with his quickness and size.

Round 3 (No. 103 overall): OT Will Holden, Vanderbilt

Sean Payton has said he wants the Saints to add a young offensive lineman. Right now, tackle is more of a long-term need than guard. Holden has experience playing both tackle spots and shouldn't take long to develop after playing in the SEC.

Round 6 (No. 196 overall): CB Brian Allen, Utah

Yes, just like defensive end, the Saints double up on cornerbacks. Allen has the size -- 6-foot-3, 215 pounds -- and length teams desire. He's also a former wide receiver, so coming out of the Pac-12, it's easy to make the Richard Sherman comparison. If he's half as good as Sherman, this would be a great sixth-round pick.

Round 7 (No. 229 overall) RB I'Tavius Mathers, MTSU

Mathers was the pick here in my first two mock drafts, and the addition of Adrian Peterson doesn't change this possibility. Mathers could provide help as a receiver and kickoff returner, and he has a nose for the end zone, scoring 20 total touchdowns in 2016.
