1. TE Tyler Warren (just because he’s an absolute freak and instant star, he’s that good)

2. WR Tet McMillam: easily the best WR and we need someone that isn’t Smurf size like we currently have at WR

3. DT Mason Graham: he’s probably gone by #9 but he and Bresee would be a tough combo inside

4. LT Will Campbell: I think Will’s short arms make him a guard and not LT but one hell of a guard and would solve our LG problem for the next decade.

5. QB Jaxon Dart: I’m higher on Dart than most because while he can make mistakes, he’s got a great arm and he’s extremely underrated as a running threat. He might need a year to learn and grow in the system but luckily we are stuck with Carr for a year. I’d love if we could grab him in round 2 but he will be gone by then now no doubt. Maybe they could package #40 and a pick from next year or someone like Olave to move back into the mid-bottom 1st and grab him. We don’t need to pay Olave a big deal, too much risk. 9 is a little high for Dart though, you have to get a no doubt day 1 starter with #9.

Agreed about Graham I really should have had him 1st but he was an afterthought because I see him going no later than 5th.

Same. We have almost no chance at getting him at #9. I guess I was doing a wish list with him

It's likely that we get Graham, Warren, McMillian, or even Sanders at 9. I'm thrilled with any of the four.

Sanders isn’t even a 1st round player to me. He doesn’t have a big arm and he takes way too many needless sacks which indicates he has terrible pocket presence. I get he’s Deion’s kid but if he weren’t he’d be a middle round selection.

Realistic?

1. Graham (falling to 9 isn’t that unimaginable)

2. Jalon Walker (think he’s a top 5 player)
3. Mykel Williams (unreal ceiling, dog, leader)
4. Tyler Warren (safe pick at a need position)
5. Mike Green (wildcard here. Too early imo)
6. Membau (bpa type situation)
7. Will Johnson (rather not touch him)

I want no part of Campbell or Tet.

Lance Zierlein has Graham going 11th and Daniel Jeremiah has him at 8 in their latest mocks. Not the greatest combine for Graham.

He just showed up to his pro day up 10 lbs from the combine and still didn’t test. Tells me they weren’t happy with his combine measures

Saints will draft Jalon Walker if available. They view him as a difference maker.

Think I agree with this guy, except I'm OK with Campbell only if the Saints like him and if they've (silently) given up on Penning - could move Fuaga back to RG and put Campbell at LT. I'd be happy with Tet in a trade down scenario.

Graham isn't getting past the Jags at 5. He makes too much sense for them. Hope we trade down and grab an extra pick or two. If not, wouldn't mind Tyler Warren or Will Johnson at 9.

How can that be? On his podcast he said that anyone will that offensive line would take a lot of sacks.

I don’t want Campbell at all mainly because i don’t view him as a tackle. He’s a good football player but i honestly believe he has to play guard. And im not selecting a guard at 9.

Been saying for the past month, I think Graham or McMillian will be there at 9.

I’d pick one of those two or trade down. I think we could still get a top tier prospect anywhere from 14-17 and pick up a second or third.

Graham
Walker
Williams

I just don't see us passing on these three at the 9.
Great guards at 40.
Good TEs, RBs and WRs in the third.

Anybody but Tet and Dart really. I’m fine with a pass rusher, interior lineman, or even o line.

realistic?

campbell or banks. whether they start at LT or LG doesn't concern me. let the best man win between them and fuagua(who can go to RT). we don't have a decent back-up LT on the roster either way. two birds with one stone.
