With the 15th pick, in the 2013, TWW Official 2013 NFL Mock Draft Draft, the New Orleans Saints, select, Barkevious Mingo, Defensive End / Outside LB, LSU.

With Rob Ryan installing his 3-4 defense in New Orleans, they needed a play-making pass rush threat from the edge. New Orleans was shocked to see Mingo still on the board at this slot and believes they have landed a steal @ this position. Mingo will provide that speed off the edge and will prosper in Ryan's scheme.

New Orleans was approached by a few teams looking to trade up to land Tavon Austin but with Mingo on the board they passed on the offers. Also considered with this pick was Austin himself and Kenny Vaccaro of Texas.
