Hardest pick was the first one. Downs, Delane, Faulk, and Bain were all available. Went with Lemon.

Rest were pretty easy. Fan of all of these players, except the Oklahoma guard, that was a position pick.

I don’t care for your draft. You passed on Downs? Only if you are trading down to get really good extra picks. Too many WRs at the top of the draft IMO too.

Try this one out.



Corleone gets you a NT for run support and Overton gets you a pass rusher. Downs is the cherry on top and the defense is instantly better. Jackson can play nickel and special teams.

There was a run on OL early, so I had to wait to get a guard, but I have my heir apparent to McCoy. Singleton gets me some juice at RB we are missing with Neal and Estime. Sarratt is a solid WR and good compliment to Olave and Vele. I’ll have to look for a game breaking WR in the draft in 27.

Isn't Makai Lemon just an Olave clone?

What’s wrong with Lemon? I have him as WR2 on my big board

Edited. I think it would be hard to pass Faulk, Downs or Delane for Lemon. I don't see the Saints doing that.

Downs falling to our pick would be like Lattimore falling in 2017. Don’t think we’d pass on him. He’s the best safety prospect since Eric Berry.

The inevitable melt on this board when the Saints don’t draft Delane will be something

Completely unrealistic, but they kept offering me really good trades and I’m not Loomis so…

Faulk is overrated. The entire DL class is a bit overrated. But yeah I wouldn’t/couldn’t pass on Downs

Lemon is more JSN than Olave. If we take a WR early I hope it’s him.

I’d be surprised if Lemon even went in the first. He’s a late 20’s selection at best. He does a lot of things well but worry about his long speed. He’s the box safety version of a WR

The Saints could be drafting at #12 if they win this week and finished 2nd in the NFC South. Plus, they're likely jumping the Chiefs.

Sorry Les, gotta disagree. Think he’s a top 15 lock. JSN, Nacua, Egbuka, St Brown have shown the way. All 4.5 guys with elite balance separation hands. Lemon is of similar cloth.

Doesn’t matter. Saints will win again this weekend and all of these will be gone before we pick.

Hurray for meaningless wins!

I’m not saying he can’t play.

But You kinda made my point for me:

Egbuka: drafted 1.19
JSN: drafted 1.20
Nacua: drafted 5.177

These guys were all 6’0” about 200lbs. Lemon is a little more gadget-y. He’ll measure 5’9” or 5’10”.

Hope they invite you to the after game lockeroom celebration so they can red alert you and stuff your whiney arse in a locker. You must be quite familiar with those accommodations.
