Report: Saints 1 of 9 teams scheduled to formally meet with Boise St. RB Ashton Jeanty at NFL Combine

Abdul Carter (won't be there, got it)
Jalon Walker
Mike Green

None of these guys would be considered a reach at #9.

Even Mykel Williams and Shemar Stewart (neither of whom I like) would be considered by most to be worthy of the #9 pick.

Mikel and Jalon I think would be reaches at 9. Mike Green has some character concerns that need to be taken into consideration. My real point though was why should we feel the need to pass on a clearly better talent based on position? Why is it always about filling a position on the roster than taking the better guy?
