With the selection of WR being thin this year... (1 Viewer)

It looks like the Saints selection of Meachem wasn't as crazy as many thought.

According to Mel Kiper, it is not very deep this year.

"Jared (Denver CO): What is the ddepest position in this years draft?

Mel Kiper: Right now, I'd go QB, TE, OT, CB and also if you need a 3rd or 4th WR."

Kiper is as normal off base.

So where did he place RB's?

Yeah, he actually might of been the first WR off the board this year.....

I agree with with OT, but I think DE is the second deepest position with LB next.

I would have thought RB would be among the deepest positions in this draft; Kiper didn't even mention that?

In any event, I do think Meachem could still very well prove to be worth a 1st round pick, it's just unfortunate that we essentially wasted a year's worth of 1st round pick playing time, given that he didn't contribute.

I liked the Meachem pick at the time and still do, provided he actually plays this year... we still have a need for another WR, in my opinion. Colston is the only reliable one of the bunch. Patten was a good find, but he's old as dirt.

He's younger than Horn was...
