First round (No. 15 overall) — Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia
The writing is beginning to solidify with this pick. If things go as we think they will, the Saints will have a shot at one of the best pure pass-rusher available in this year’s draft.
There’s no doubt Jarvis Jones will be one of the best players available when the Saints pick. When you have as many holes as the Saints do, you go best player avaialble no matter what.
The pass-rushing situation in Rob Ryan’s new 3-4 is a bit murky right now with names like Junior Galette and Martez Wilson. That problem will be solved rather quickly with the addition of Jones.
Third round (No. 75) —D.J. Swearinger, S, South Carolina
There is a chance D.J. Swearinger makes it to the Saints third-r0und pick. If he does, the Saints would be foolish to pass on him.
Right now the starting tandem at safety is Roman Harper and Malcom Jenkins. The former is likely on his way out after next season, so having a talented rooking such as Swearinger ride the pine and develop for a season is a smart move. Not to mention he can contribute heavily on special teams.
Swearinger is is known for his physical play and versatility. Considering the free and strong safety positions are essentially merging into one, having a player who can bounce between both just as Jenkins can is a solid tactic.
Fourth round (No. 109) – Sanders Commings, CB, Georgia
The addition of a No. 1 corner in Keenan Lewis this offseason does not completely remedy the issue at the position. Jabari Greer is aging and has a ridiculous contract. Patrick Robinson was the weak link on the worst statistical defensive unit in NFL history.
In other words, cornerback is a major need.
Luckily for the Saints, Sanders Commings has been flying under-the-radar throughout this entire draft process. He’s a massive corner who excels strictly in man coverage—exactly what Rob Ryan will be using. While playing to Commings’ strengths, the Saints may be able to find a starter mid-way through the season here in the fourth round.
Fifth round (No. 144) — Reid Fragel, OT, Ohio State
If there is one thing Sean Payton and Co. are known for, it’s finding late-round gems at the offensive tackle position who can develop into starters.
Look no further than Reid Fragel—he’s all but a lock to the Saints because he fits the description perfectly.
Fragel spent most of his football career playing tight end, but made the transition to offensive tackle and has not looked back. He is still a very raw prospect, but played well and managed to hold on to a starting gig during his time at Ohio State. Given the right coaching, Fragel could be a Pro-Bowler in a few years.
Sixth round (No. 183) — Denard Robinson, WR, Michigan
This late in the draft, you either want to find a hidden gem who could develop or a boom-or-bust type player.
File Denard Robinson under the second description.
With Devery Henderson gone, it’s up to Joseph Morgan to fill the void as the explosive slot receiver. It can’t hurt to add some insurance on the chance he falters, and you can’t do much better than Robinson at this point in the draft.
Robinson is an elite athlete who is almost untouchable when he gets in open space. He’ll also be good for a gadget-trick play every now and then. Not a bad value for a talent who could flourish catching passes from Drew Brees.

following my Fragel lead, like Robinson as a wildcard but dunno if ya hafta draft him

This is the third time I think I've seen this pick made. Interdasting...
I'll be honest though. I'd be very happy with that draft.
Question: Can Robinson return punts/kicks?
Posted on 4/24/13 at 11:06 am to blueslover
Robinsons is certainly intriguing... but at the same time Morgan was getting better towards the end of the season IMO
Posted on 4/24/13 at 11:09 am to blueslover
Hmmmm. I never really gave much though to Robinson. I would actually really like that pick. You know Payton could get creative some reverses and whatnot

no NT in this mock? that means it is silly. biggest position of need for us on defense, so there is no way it goes ignored the entire draft
Posted on 4/24/13 at 11:17 am to blueslover
Frankly, I'd be happy w/ all of those picks.

dude, allow Blues his moment. The fulcrum of his existence is the draft, and this day is his day to shine. He spent all year compiling info for this moment, so just for today we will let him play.

Blues - I actually really like this draft - i would be very happy with all of them, and I think Denard could be a gem.

We have two solid NTs already, one of them being young, in Bunkley and Hicks.
I say this over and over and over and over on here but it goes ignored. Ryan does NOT use space eaters on the line. He runs a 1-gap and likes his linemen to penetrate.
This is why picks like Richardson and Star are just silly.
