Where does the Jammal Brown pick rank in all time Saints drafts (1 Viewer)

[thib82]

I'd put J.Brown up there on the list, but Willie Roaf HAS to be number one on the list. The guy was a VERY dominate LT for the Saints for a long time. He was a constant probowler, and was the best o-lineman to play on our team. Roaf is alse going to be a hall-of-famer, who spent most of his career with the Saints. Brown had ONE good season, I can't put him at the top yet. Deuce should be higher than Brown also. on and off the field, he was and still is a great player for our team.

1. Ricky Williams ( because if it werent for this pick we dont get Duece )
2. Jamal Brown
3. Reggie Bush

I lost some faith in JB last year. he had a lot of mental mistakes for coming off a pro bowl year. I hope it was a fluke.

he only was supposed to be out for the season because of his knee but played through it.

Hmm, can't say that list is one I'd agree with, personally I think this magnificent 7 has a lot more going for it.

1, Archie Manning (1971)
2. Willie Roaf (1993)
3. George Rogers (1981)
4. Stan Brock (1980)
5. Will Smith (2004)
6. Wayne Martin (1989)
7. Deuce McAllister (2001)

1. Archie Manning (1971)
2. Willie Roaf (1993)
3. Deuce McAllister (2001)
4. Stan Brock (1980)
5. Wayne Martin (1989)
6. Joe Johnson (1994)
7. * USFL Supplemental draft pick #1 -Vaughn Johnson (1984)
8. George Rogers (1981)
9. Chuck Muncie (1976)
10. Jim Dombrowski (1986)


I'd put Will Smith and Charles Grant about even around #11, and Jammal Brown around #13 or so, behind Mark Fields at #12.

The loss of Willie Roaf to KC, who I would place above even Archie as the greatest first round draft pick the Saints have ever made, is just one more huge stain on the Haslett era.

I have to give credit to you '79 - I forgot about Vaughan Johnson, that was one hell of a pick!
