Mickey has been incredibly consistent on taking OL and DL in the first round. I think the Bane is very likely.

Kenyon Sadiq

All of these mocked WR's to us at 8 seem average at best. JJ and Fant aren't the long-term answers. Shough needs a legit, big-bodied target who can be a mismatch for LB's and nickels to draw attention away from X/Y receivers and still have the ability to get YAC's like Sadiq does considering Moore's intermediate attack design. Definitely won't be a popular opinion, but hey, I felt the same way about Tyler Warren last year, and I'm callin my shot! Top-tier TE's can truly be the catalysts for teams with inept offenses.

Delane or Bain. I'm so close with either of them.

My preference and prediction is, in order: Tyson, Downs, and Delane, depending on availability at 8. This is assuming Styles, Bailey, and Reese are off the board. Saints will pass on Bain and Tate/Lemon.

A whole lot of Downs in this thread. Does the Saints board know better than Vegas?

Nick Underhill was asked how many pre draft articles he has ready for the 8th pick and he said two.

Honestly think this will come down to Tyson or Downs

2 ...

I sure hope the Saints aren't drinking the Tyson Kool-Aid as much as this Saints board is drinking it. Tyson's agent has done a wonderful job of getting this average, small, often-injured WR some extra money in this draft, where he will need to compete against bigger, stronger, faster pro defensive backs.

Y'all have to remember this guy played in a defense is optional league.

I wish it were Downs but I got a feeling the Giants take him at 5. But then again, the Giants have been linked to fricking everybody. From Tyson and Tate to Styles, Love and Downs.
