From Evan Silva’s mock draft

Silva is a fantasy football guy. Albeit well respected in that world, not sure how great his sources are. Worth noting, nonetheless

Also worth noting he ran 4.50, not 4.42.

Every one of his college TDs (twitter)

The saints have a pro-bowl returner.

If we traded back into the 2nd round he'd be a good pick.

Agree. I think 24 is too high for him.

You like Ayuik Lester? I don’t know why people think he wouldn’t be worth getting picked at 24. The dude screams Sean Payton to me for some reason.

He is one of the more unpredictable players in the top part of the draft. Some have him ranked in the second round while I have also seen him ranked in the top 20 (even in recent mocks and rankings). There is really no telling where he goes. If saints really liked him enough to take him at 24 I wouldn’t be mad bc they would know something we don’t know. He is pretty electric on the field.

I do jamal. Click on that link i posted in the OP, and he can win in multiple ways. He's tough to bring down, he's good in the short game and he tracks deep balls well. Apparently he's just an intermediate route runner. I admittedly do not have an eye for that. But his winning traits are apparent.

He reminds me of Greg Jennings, who was a damn good player in his own right.

The real questions is do they want to go WR in the 1st when there will be such great value in the 3rd.


But if you have a guy, you have a guy. Go and get him.

Sign me up.


As long as it’s a WR, OL or LB I’m in. Like I’ve said before, I wouldn’t doubt if we added Ogletree or Bradham in FA to fill out the LB corps. Payton hates drafting LBs high in the draft. I truly think he and Allen value them less than almost any other position. I think we go WR or trade back

Could be a situation like 2017 where if Payton truly loves a player he trades back up to get him like Kamara. Not saying Aiyuk will fall to the third but I can see, due to the surplus of WRs, guys like Aiyuk, Reagor, Mims slipping to the second and Payton saying frick it and using the third and a future pick to get into the second for Aiyuk. Looks like a Payton guy

Also apparently there’s a vid of him from the Senior Bowl opening a pack of cards of NFL players and the one he loves the most is the Michael Thomas card

possibly. I think with the uncertainty of what will happen could make it a non story, but we will see. Teams probably have a better idea at this point of what will happen then I do
