Walter Football always brings it with their 3 round mocks:
Round 1, Pick 10: Dante Fowler, DE/OLB, Florida

The Saints got rid of Victor Butler, so they definitely need to work on finding an upgrade across from Junior Galette. Anyone who can tackle would fit in well, as their putrid defense couldn't even stop Andy Dalton.

Round 2, Pick 41: Jalen Collins, CB, LSU

The Saints have had major defensive issues this season. Some of their players can't tackle whatsoever. Meanwhile, the corners, particularly Patrick Robinson and Corey White, haven't been able to cover anyone.

Round 3, Pick 76: Reese Dismukes, C, Auburn

The Saints' starting center, Jonathan Goodwin, turns 36 in December. He'll be a free agent in March


I'd take Senquez Golson in the 2nd before Collins, or take Trae Waynes or Ifo Ekpre-Olomu in the first and Hau'Oli Kikaha in the second round.

Vic Beasley would be awesome. I'd prefer Benardrick McKinney though. Dude will definitely fall at 10 for us. He can cover slot receivers as well as stop the run and rush the QB. He would be a huge upgrade over Hawthorne and Lofton.

landon collins at #10? a bit high for his skill set imo. He's a bulky safety that gets beat in pass coverage. Reminds me too much of Roman Harper

I honestly don't see Beasley being a 1st round pick come April. He's too small and gets washed out in the run game way too easily. On top of that, he gets caught flat footed and out of position too much. His only real strength is pass rushing but at 230 lbs, he has to be sure he doesn't get caught up by a T or else that's it. He's doesn't have a very large assortment of pass rush moves either. I could see a team falling in love with him during the combines just because he looks the part but I'd be shocked if he's taken in the top 15.

And he might be the fourth best DB on LSU's D.

LOL at the top two - Glennon and Mett both have potential. The titans need to go OL there, because I kinda like Mett and don't want him dying.

Unless they unbench him and he plays out of his mind these last few games no way the Bucs will be rebuilding around Glennon.

Lol, if you think Beasley isn't a first rounder you're crazy. He is going to murder the combine. His strength numbers are outlandish and his athleticism will startle people.

He's 6'0" 222lbs and arguably the best athlete at Safety in this class. Superb against the run, best covering from the box. He's the love child of HaHa and Barron.

I don't think he'll be elite in the NFL, but I think he'll be good. JMO.

Mariota is the only QB in this draft worthy of a high pick but some of those teams at the top will be desperate enough for a high profile player like Jameis.

I've been high on him all year. Dude is huge 6'5 245. Can come in right away and solidify the linebacker position. Don't think he's worth a top 10 pick though. Maybe a trade back, late first kind of player.

I haven't started to look at draft too much yet, but my initial wish list from just watching the season is Shawn Oakman or Shaq Thompson. If not them then the corner from Michigan State, Waynes.

Dante Fowler seems like a great OLB guy

Eric Kendricks ILB from UCLA

his brother Mychal Kendricks plays for the Eagles.

maybe get Kendricks to compete with Hawthorne or just show Hawthorne the door.

shown the door sounds better.

I would be cool with this depending on what we get in the trade. McKinney would fit very well in our defense. He has that play making ability you see in players like Luke Keuchly and Patrick Willis. Very exciting player to watch.
