DT tend to drop, it’s not a ‘money position’

I think there’s a good chance he’s there




Like I've said in other draft threads, he's PERFECT next to Bresee and would basically be like 1.5 picks, b/c he should unlock Bresee's full potential.

I also think Graham is scheme independent and can play in a 4-3 or 3-4 in various fronts, again, unlocking Bresee.

Graham and Abdul Carter are going to be top 5 picks I think. Two guys I had hoped we would get a crack at

Kenneth Grant is a wagon though. 6’3” 340

This who I really want with our second pick. I’ve seen him go from the bottom of the first till our pick in the second.

He’s the type of DT Breese could use next to him. Dream draft would be us getting McMillian and him in the 2nd.

I like Graham just hate the idea of spending a top ten pick on a defensive tackle.

Townsy I am fairly certain Grant is going to be a top 20 kinda guy after the combine. He’s going to show out on the testing portion at 340

I love how confident this board is that Milroe sucks. Meanwhile he had 32 rushing touchdowns in two years. He could probably be a 1st round running back if he wanted Had 23 passing TDs, 6 ints, 66% completion percentage in 2023 before losing Saban and having to learn a new offense. I watched him hang 42 pts on lsu two years in a row. If hurts and Lamar can develop as passers in the league so can Milroe. This board said Jayden Daniels wouldn’t be able to hang in the nfl either. So many smart guys here

Hurts led the Big 12 in comp%, passing TDs, Y/A, and QB Rating his senior year

Lamar led the ACC in pass yards, 2nd in Y/A, passing TDs, and QB Rating


Learning curve for Milroe is going be a little different. For every success story for a mobile QB there are 10 more who shite the bed. I do think a team could get creative with him like Taysom though

Can we give up another 1st to get him?

they should trade a few later round picks to move up a few spots

Ok now this makes me gag. No, the Saints would not recover for 3 years + if Milroy is the pick.

I would rather trade back than make this pick at 9.

Whatever HC wants Melrose at 9 should be fired for suggesting it.

Hurts ran for 1300 and 20 too while leading the major pass cats


Guys like Drew Lock, Jake Fromm, Jarrett Stidham and Josh Dobbs were the leading passers in the SEC during Hurts’ bama run

Hurts was SEC OPOY as a frosh. For his SEC career

63%
6.8 TD%
1.7 INT%
8 Y/A
134 yards per
149 rating

All that to say, none of it has anything to do with Milroe’s limited passing bag

Did Sporting News only watch the LSU game when putting this mock together?

Are we trying to draft Taysom Hill’s replacement?

Milroe's dual-threat ability can help them catch up quickly at the position with the rest of the division.


Pennix in Atlanta looks promising so far.

Baker/The Bucs have won this turd a division 4 years in a row.

Bryce Young started improving towards the end of the season after he came back off the bench.

Saints are dysfunctional right now. I don't think Milroe is the guy you crawl out of a hole with.

He fits the role in a team with a better coach/stability/O-line. Saints don't have that.
