Saints entire staff are at LSU Pro Day (1 Viewer)

[SonOfNOLA]

Everyone’s there but Jeff Ireland who’s probably on other scouting trips.

It’s interesting that the Saints top staff made sure to come out to get a look at LSU’s top prospects who won’t be in our range, except maybe WR Brian Thomas Jr. DL Maason Smith and Mekhi Wingo are good Day 2 prospects.

Malik Nabers is this draft's top WR.

Malik Nabers is this draft top WR.

If we were in better pick range around #6-#8, I would be hoping we could move up for Nabers.

Brian Thomas Jr. could be a very nice pick at 14 though. He fits our WR profile. 4.3 speed, 6’4/205 lb size, YAC ability, great separation and cuts well to throw off DBs during routes. He can thrive in intermediate and deep area.

Olave, BTJ, Sheed and AT would be a great top 4.

At this point I find it hard to really think about prospects at #14 that aren't OTs. I like the BPA approach and would really like to have BTJ, Bowers, or a DE that falls, but I'm not sure it's possible unless they find at least one starter at OT before the draft.

Not to argue but Marvin Harrison is a game changing WR also. I think Harrison may go first in the draft because of his height of 6'4. I don't think you could go wrong with choosing any of these players. Both will have an immediate impact

Not including the offensive guys from NFLSU bc they get all of the love, have to admit that Wingo or Jordan Jefferson would be dope on the DLine

Clearly smokescreen.

Oh, he is and I won't argue against it, but I'm drafting Nabers all day every day over Harrison.

It be funny if we draft Brian Thomas JR same last name as Michael Thomas

Clearly smokescreen.

Its the one pro day you should see a lot of Saints representing, its in their backyard.

They didn’t show up like this for Tulane’s Pro Day the other day. Tulane’s was at the Saints’ facility on Airline right inside their office. Maybe had some scouts there but Loomis, Harley, Allen, and top assistant coaches weren’t present. All of Tulane’s prospects are in our reach for later picks.

We’ve usually had just Marcus Robertson, Joe Woods and Michael Hodges running the position drills at LSU pro day. Rather than our top execs and HC being there together looking at 2-3 prospects who are top 5-13 projections before our pick.

I think the value of an OT at #14 + Keon Coleman/Xavier Legette/Troy Franklin/Ricky Pearsall/Ladd McConkey at #45 would be greater than BTJ at #14 + whatever OT we could get at #45

Jefferson is a stud.

He impressed me the most this past season for LSU. Dude balled out.

 

[SWJJ]

BTjr, Smith, and Wingo are all legitimate players the saints could be targeting. Jefferson and Turner could be late round selections as well.
