He wants to be like me

Would love if Lee or Mosley fell to us.

It's pretty close to what I'd call general consensus. I don't have any real nitpicks until Philly. Is there any better staright up replacement for DeSean Jackson than Brandin Cooks? He's the ideal fit there IMO. SD almost has to go CB unless there was a run before them.

dayum, my mocked guy to the Saints, Kyle Fuller, is the highest I've seen him yet- the second CB taken at #15.

Calvin pryor that low too...man!

Holder Full 7 Rounds

First round (No. 27 overall) - WR Marqise Lee, USC
Last week: DE Kony Ealy, Missouri. Lee analysis: The Saints need a playmaking wide receiver. Lee made big plays in his first two years of college with Matt Barkley throwing to him Predictably, his numbers fell with a new signal-caller. Lee (6 feet, 192 pounds) could find that same rapport he created with Barkley here in New Orleans with Drew Brees.
Second round (No. 58) - DE/OLB Jeremiah Attaochu, Georgia Tech
Last week: WR Jarvis Landry, LSU. Attaochu analysis: The 6-3, 252-pound defender seems like he'd be a perfect fit to bring youth and speed to the Saints' outside linebacker spot. It's hard to question his production with 31 ½ career sacks at Georgia Tech, a school record.
Third round (No. 91) - CB Pierre Desir, Lindenwood
Last week: CB Stanley Jean-Baptiste, Nebraska. Desir analysis: It didn't feel right for me to have the Saints with no small-school players in last week's projections. Desir isn't just a flier, either. He certainly possesses NFL size at 6-1, 198 pounds.
Fourth round (No. 126) - G Trai Turner, LSU
Last week: OLB Devon Kennard, USC. Turner analysis: Turner (6-3, 310) could be an NFL starter in his rookie year. So why would the Saints take a starting guard when they have Pro Bowl players Ben Grubbs and Jahri Evans? They could bolster their depth for 2014 then go with Turner as a starter in 2015.
Fifth round (No. 167) - WR Kevin Norwood, Alabama
Last week: S Ahmad Dixon, Baylor. Norwood analysis: I've seen him play since high school in D'Iberville (Miss.). Tall and lanky (6-2, 198), but his 4.48-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine was better than I expected. Plus, the Saints have expressed plenty of interest in Norwood, according to a source I talked to last week.
Fifth round (No. 169) - C Bryan Stork, Florida State
Last week: Norwood. Stork analysis: This pick is a no-brainer pick. The Saints need competition at center. Stork (6-4, 315) visited the Saints, so this seems easy to gauge.
Sixth round (No. 202) - RB De'Anthony Thomas, Oregon
Last week: DT Deandre Coleman, California. Thomas analysis: The Saints don't make a regular habit of drafting running backs, but Thomas could be compete for a Darren Sproles-like role.
