Nice.. how would y'all feel about edge rusher Jabari Zuniga from Florida if he made it to us in the 3rd round.

4.6 40yd dash. 6'4. 250 ish. I recall him being pretty salty in the sec.

Just because he comps himself that, doesn't mean it's true

I just don't see it

Would you be happy if saints take him at 24?
I just don't see it

His dad played for Holy Cross in NOLA and then at Tulane

He’s still a little raw but would be a nice get if he lasts to the 3rd rd.

I’d love Zuniga.


Trade back and get 34 and 75 from the Colts.

Aiyuk or Pittman at 34. 75 for Zuniga and 88 for Cam Dantzler or Malik Harrison.

I think he knows who he models his game after. It’s not really a true or false thing

I’d be just as happy w him at WR at 24 than I would be with any other WR. If WR is in play then he is in play

You like him that much, over aiyuk

Aiyuk looked much better to me

Couple guys I like
Ashtyn Davis at free safety
James proche wr
Devin duvernay wr
Damon Arnette cb
Terrell lewis de

All these guys should be there in the 3rd and later

I like a lot of the WRs. It’s hard to call since the bust rate is so high

A guy like Duvernay looks just as good as Reagor to me. One is mocked to the 1st, the other 3-4th. Who knows

Been watching Pittman’s highlights. Some of these catches are insane. Good athlete. Can break tackles but also has enough speed to pull away if you underestimate him.

Tyler Johnson from minn and quintez Cephus/ wisc are some interesting late round receiver options.

The more I think and hear stuff, I really think Michael Pittman is coming here. Watch his tape, the kid does it all.

Strong, big body, can really run and highpoint the football. Deceptively fast after the catch and can make stuff happen in the open field. Would be a really strong guy to put as the other outside receiver opposite 13.

The reason I think he comes here is the intangibles. Apparently he's a really smart kid. Son of a former player. Knows how to work, loves to get better. Strong hands and engages in good hand fighting. Knows where to be on the field and always trying to get better. Highest score on the Wonderlic of all the receivers. He has an abusrd work ethic and is obsessed with football. He has a lot of MT in his approach to the game. Would nut all over myself if we got this dude


Prediction 2- after 4 months of Murray v. queen debates, we get neither. Think there's better value for a LB than at 24. Murray has a LOT of Stephone Anthony in his game and Queen has some growing to do physically. Queen doesn't arrive at the scene ready to commit a crime, so to speak.
BPA as always but I just don't see it happening with either of these 2 at 24

I like Michael Pittman. I actually like him much more than Tee Higgins. I don’t really like him in the first but wouldn’t mind trading up on day 2 to a more reasonable spot. I originally wanted a shiftier guy but I think the addition of Emmanuel Sanders changes that. We can go either way with our receiver group bc Sanders can play outside or slot. We have seen what Sean can do with bigger receivers (Colston/Graham). He will get them involved. Pittman also ran a lot better than expected 4.52. That is solid for a big man.

I actually like Baun from Wisconsin just as much if not more than those two.

The love for Aiyuk in league circles is a lot stronger than what we’re hearing in the media. In speaking with multiple GMs, even with the deep wideout class, Aiyuk is expected to come off the board in Round 1. I’ve got him going to New Orleans, a team that has very few holes, but could use one more receiver if the Saints are going to make a run for Drew Brees‘ elusive second Super Bowl ring this season. Michael Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders and Aiyuk would form a very dangerous 1-2-3.

I did a mock traded up to 12 to get Simmons when he fell. Then traded up to 42 to grab Brandon Aiyuk. Don't have a 1st or 2nd next year.

I know. No way he makes past the Jags. I do think we trade up into the second though.

If Simmons is there at 12 I can guarantee the Saints would be trying to trade up from 24 though.
