We need a Nose Tackle
I really like the 3 top picks. The rest I don't know too much about. But Fashanu will be gone before we pick at 14. Lee is projected as a 5th rounder. I don't believe the Saints will reach that far in the second round. Cooper Beebe will be taken at the back end of the 1st or at the top of the 2nd round. I think the Saints will go with either Taliese Fuaga or Jared Verse in the 1st whichever is still there when we pick. Most mocks have Fashanu going in the top 10 and some have Fuaga going in the top 10. I'm hoping one or the other fall to us at 14.This might be my solidified mock draft. In the first pencil in any tackle that falls to us.
In the second we make what looks to be a reach by taking Logan Lee DT Iowa. But he really fits our defense.
Then we get offensive line depth to address our injuries.
And a strong safety who plays the run and pass well, Omar Brown. Not many safeties in this class are good against the run. And this guy is an under the radar player. We’ve done well with those defensive backs recently.
AJ Barner is a decent dual threat TE who will be better at blocking early on.
Joshua Cephus gives a deep threat in addition to Shaheed. Olave is also but he’s always double covered.
Nathan Thomas for more o line depth.
And Isaiah Davis is a pro ready back who excels at zone runs.
No trades because we can’t afford to trade up and we never trade down.
