re: Saints Talk Draft Project: The Dirty Dozen for #27

The Saints might have even had Jones ranked higher.

It was actually said by Payton or Loomis that Jones wasn't even in the same bubble of 6 players Vaccaro was in(and from what else was said it included a WR and a couple of DTs taken before our pick).

I think the saw too much bust potential in him to take him in the first.

I want us to take a wr in the first if one of the top guys are still available but I'd also be fine with addressing another position and waiting till the 2nd since the position is so deep. I just really want us to address wr in one of the first 2 rounds though. I just feel like it's become an obvious need, and there are so many talented ones that we shouldn't pass this up.

I actually think a coverage LB is more of a priority than WR. Also grabbing a guard should be pretty high given our current age and cost there. Corner back shouldn't be completely forgotten either but we at least have bodies there.

"We" are down on Toon but that doesn't mean the Saints are(especially based on what Loomis said) and people are forgetting about Morgan(or aren't expecting him to come back healthy) and Tanner(lol most are saying right now).

All that said, yes this would be the draft to grab a WR since it's loaded with them. I'd actually prefer they just go BPA regardless of position(minus grabbing a center somewhere if we don't sign one). Somewhere there will be a WR where the value fits whether that's the first or fifth round or somewhere in between.
