Who will be the most successful draft pick of our draft?

Don't worry about success in regards to value of pick, just straight up, who will be the best player/most successful with the Saints?
I think Werner is going to be a very good player in our league. Not sure about probowl potential but very good. If Adebo and Turner both end up better players than Werner then our draft will be just fine. There's a ton to like about Adebo and Turner. We all have a bad taste in our mouth as it pertains to Turner mostly due to the difficult path Davenport is taking to get to his NFL Potential. I still like Davenport. I hope he can get healthy cause i think he has tools to be dominant. I like Davenport to take over for Cam and Turner to take over the edge rushing from that side. I hope Turner's apparent positive attitude can help Davenport and rejuvenate that D line as a whole. It takes an army from a D line standpoint to dominate a season.
Ian Book needs to be given 3 years. He has the moxy to be possibly be something special but investing in backup qb's with a 4th rd pick is hardly anything to sweat.

Adebo.

Adebo will have the quickest path for opportunity for success. How he manages that opportunity given his talent is not going to be easy. We as fans need to remember we may be throwing a rookie into the fire. We need our edge rush to help our secondary this year. I hope the early opportunity for Adebo will strengthen his career path and not derail it quickly.

Werner is slow and undersized from what I've seen on the field. I believe he will need some developing IMO.

What’s an ideal size and speed in comparison to what he has?

He had one of the best RAS scores for LBers. He's an athlete with good size for WLB.

You’re basing this on one factor about him, not his actual measurements or performance.

When is 6’3” 238 undersized for a Will?
Posted on 5/3/21 at 9:41 am to Chad504boy
Idk.
Neither do y’all.

This upcoming season? Turner or Adebo.
Long term? Werner for sure.

This is straight from draft profile for weaknesses:
Long and thin through hips and legs.
Below-average base to withstand angle blocks.
Will have trouble constricting run lanes with force.
Needs to be quicker shadowing lateral run cuts.
Glued to bigger blockers once they find his frame.
Needs to find consistent angles and position as tackler.
Below-average strength to finish.
Average field flow as spot dropper.
4.62 for his 40 isn't horrible for size but could be polished.
None of y'all can take someone's opinion worth a crap.

Obviously it's a crapshoot but I'll go with Adebo. I have a good feeling about him.

You just called it slow, tho

Jamin Davis and Jabril Cox were rated higher for sure; Jamin ran 4.4s geez man. Jabril had extensive experience at ND and SEC level.
Both pedigree LBers.
Not knocking Werner but from a glance he doesn't look as good as those two. He might pan out just fine though?

Can't tackle and lasted until Day 3 for a reason.

And Werner didn't have extensive experience playing at Ohio State and in the playoffs?
