Zack Baun: How do you like the pick? (1 Viewer)

[Eman5805]

On the player, I'm meh and I voted as uch.

If he was a possible 1st round choice and we got him in the 3rd round? That's a clear value. A future 3rd is a small price if you trust the Saints board. Which I do do.

I'll just need to look at him more. See if I'm missing something.

This was the guy I wanted after our 1st round pick, but did not think we could get him. Great trade up.

he flunked a drug test with a dilute urine. Then he acted shocked about it. THAT is likely the primary reason he fell, along with him being a bit of a tweener. Will require a creative coordinator. Hopefully Alonzo and Anzalone stay healthy so he can be brought along slowly and put into aposition that works to his strengths. Great pick though.

When I saw we traded up, I knew it was for him.

Indeed, I thought he would be gone in the 1st, 2nd at least.

OMG! Mike D's #2 OLB, first round grade, taken in the 3rd!!!!!!!!!

I love you Mickey!!!!!

Baun on the Bayou!

We got our linebacker, and a good one.

Love the pick

Well last year they were experimenting with Vince Biegel as a pass rushing LBer, so I guess there´s room for a guy like that in the defense. Let´s hope he can develop coverage skills as well!

This morning I was wondering what player would fall. Didn’t think it would be Baun

Same here. I watched a little game footage and I didn’t see anything amazing. I’m not complaining though, I’m not the one getting paid to find talent, lots of smart people say he’s good.

What's his injury history?

This x1000. No more scrambling for stop gaps late in the season

Excellent pick! We got our linebacker!

no CBA strike because he drank too much water, no masking agent. We are good and Zack may have a motivational chip on his shoulder.

Love it. He is exactly who I was hoping for, I almost jumped out of my socks.

Saints seem to know exactly what they are doing.
