Post Combine Talk on 3-4 OLBs

time to sort out the fray, put a % you think they are available at #15 and your thoughts. Mine:
Damontre Moore- he went in looking more likely gone and comes out looking like available without a doubt. NFL teams must begin to decide whether he's a poor athlete with limited upside or a Terrell Suggs type of defender who does not test well but plays lights out. Doubt his 3-4 fit at all
acknowledges disappointment
Bjoern Werner- 75%, didn't impress as special, confirmed that he is 4-3DE only, not a Saints option IMO
Werner 40
Jarvis Jones- 50%, sounds like more teams have taken him off their boards than those keeping him. The sterling performances of the other 3-4 players could fill all the seekers of these guys spots before #15. Top 5 talent strangely seems much more likely being a Saints possibility. They've taken medical risks like Brees, Romeus, and Toon. Jones looks like a great hope for us. Pro Day will be huge
lame sounding explanation of not working out
Mingo- 33%, shined but definitely needs to fill out, % this high cuz other pass rushers could fill the needy spots before #15
Mingo's Draft Journey
Dion Jordan- 10% potential factor pushed even higher, top 3-4OLB taken IMO
40yd with commentary
Ziggy Ansah- 5% He elevates to the pot of gold that GMs are willing to take a risk on
discussion on his readiness
My takeaway: there's only so many pass rushers that will be taken before #15. Good shot at a prized pass rusher still being available for the Saints.

Great analysis. I'm sure a fair share of peeps will disagree but I think this seems pretty reasonable overall.. Kind of sucks that the 4-3 talent may fall and the 3-4 guys could potentially see some rise

I don't see how jarvis jones is a fit at OLB in a 34 D.... He's the prototype outside 43 backer.

My order would be:
Ziggy Ansah
Barkevious Mingo
Dion Jordan
Jarvis Jones
Ziggy Ansah
Barkevious Mingo
Dion Jordan
Jarvis Jones

This is really what Im thinking now as well. As many as 3 OTs could go before 15, a WR, and hopefully a few QBs. There's got I be someone who falls.
I think our main pass rushing competition is Jax, Detroit, Jets. I think whoever gets past the Jets at 11 (I think) will be our guy

I think it really hinges on Jarvis Joness pro day!If it is remotely close to Jordan and Mingo's combine then I think if a teams doctor clears him he will go top 10. I beleive Ansah and Jordan will go before 15 which means Mingo will be ours to take, which i like. just hope his run defense can improve.
