I saw this yesterday in one of the mocks. Chicago is targeting Cooper and Shelton. If both are gone the Saints trade the #13 and a 2nd Rounder next year in order to take Dante Fowler, DL/ OLB. This gives us a joker that can move around and play the 3,4,or 5 Techs and Outside LB. Ryan needs some versatility upfront and Fowler would be highly valued on the Saints board.

This is all a big if Fowler is even there and both Shelton & Cooper come off before the #7 pick. The Bears still have a shot to grab Gregory and possibly Beasley at the #13 spot.

Who's mock? I highly doubt fowler is available at 7. He's considered the 2nd best defensive prospect in this draft. I'd like it, but there's no legitimate situation in my mind that he's there.

I really don't want the Saints to trade up.

We def need a joker that can do that. As is, our jokers aren't versitle enough to even be considered jokers. It's a freaking joke if you ask me.

I really hope Jenkins can turn into the player at NT that he has the potential to be.

It would go a long way and would help completely change our defense along with a young ILB

I'm not for moving up, but i'd sure consider it for Fowler at the right price.
