Mocks are almost ridiculous... but they're fun. Check out this Saints draft!!!
Evidently, the guy making this list really really really thinks the Saints need an entire new D-line.

9 New Orleans Derek Barnett* DE Tennessee 6' 3" 257

41 New Orleans Takkarist McKinley DE UCLA 6' 2" 260

73 New Orleans Cameron Sutton CB Tennessee 5' 11" 186

105 New Orleans Davon Godchaux* DT LSU 6' 4" 299

168 New Orleans Tanzel Smart DT Tulane 6' 0" 305

199 New Orleans Derek Rivers DE Youngstown State 6' 4" 255


2 DT's and 3 DE's and 1 CB... wow

NOTE: at least he picked us a Tiger in the 4th!!!
 
Five defensive linemen and a CB? That's obviously not going to happen is it?
 
What gets me is how many mocks have us taking a CB in the 1st. I'm not seeing that at all unless we trade down and grab a CB/KR. For that to happen, we'll need to have filled our need at RDE AND find somebody who really really wants the say... 15th pick? really? not happening.
 
Godchaux won't last until the 4th. Will it's a nice thought drafting D, we need at least 1 O-lineman and a LB would be nice too

We should do an edge rusher only mock. Supposedly this draft is really deep in them.


Round 1, pick 11 Derek Barnett.

The OL need was just as big a need this past draft as we had released Jahri (resigned after camp). We ended up not drafting any OL and instead went all UDFA. An all D draft is unlikely but nothing is out of the realm of possibilities with this franchise...

I think Adoree Jackson will be a first rounder after the combine. Good cornerback and damn good returner.

I doubt we draft that alleged girlfriend beater anyway
 
If 1st round is DE then 2nd round is LB or vice versa. The grand slam would be Barnett then somehow sneaking back up to get Cunningham. WOW

Grand slam for me would be Tim Williams and Adoree Jackson.
 
It's not a full DE draft, but I did double down. I also got a satellite back/WR.

I'd rather a 3 down DE that can play against the run and rush the passer. Another Cam Jordan if you will. Jonathan Allen is that guy but he'll go way too early. Barnett looks more realistic.
