Do not wnt DGB at all.. I think he has potential to be very special but not in Miami. We don't have the coaching staff or the front office to handle someone with the problems he brings. It would be a disaster if Miami drafted him. I have watched several games on him, all at Missouri. It seems like he's a second round pick before the off the field issues. Just because he's tall doesn't mean he's a good vertical threat, he actually dropped tons of passes or had the batted away on deep routes. He reminds me of Justin Blackmon. He occaisonally was bafflingly wide open for big TDs that got him an uncoverable moniker, but I don't think he ever earned it. Plus, often when you hear big off the field problems, it just leads people to assume his game is solid, even though there's no reason to. Miami really needs a WR, and I could see them taking DGB in round 2 or 3, but top half of round 1 is too early. Jaelen Strong and Nelson Agholor are still on the board. I think most teams would take them ahead of DGB, however, wide receiver order is VERY tough to mock. Last year, I'd say the average order people thought was Watkins, Evans, Cooks, Lee, Beckham. That ended up about 60% wrong.

That ended up about 60% wrong. 60% is clearly an exaggeration. It did go Watkins, Evans. And cooks went ahead of Lee. Saying 60% off because of one mistake(underrating OBJ) is a silly way of looking at it. Edit: although we both or maybe just I, forgot Benjamin.

Benjamin's stock fell off a cliff right before the draft. I can't remember why. I say 60% wrong because 3/5 are wrong. I can see your logic that if you make one change, you can fix it. But that ignores that Lee fell down well into round 2 and Beckham just missed the top 10. Lee was a mid second round pick and ended up out of the top 5 when, at the end of college football for the year most had him neck and neck with Watkins. So that's a really large correction.

Really good picks overall you made for the Saints, I'd be ecstatic with that. I really don't believe there's a need to take a 2nd TE after Maxx though. Josh Hill (who is already on the Saints roster) can make a good 2nd TE. But overall I'd love it if those were our picks in the first 3 rounds.
I also think our pass rushing problems need to be addressed, but we have so many needs there's so many "good" picks you can make for the Saints considering the numerous holes in our team.

Love both picks individually, especially getting Tomlinson in the second, but I don't like doubling up on guards. We have other needs still at RB, WR, CB, S, LB and DT(not in order). So I don't want to use our two high round picks on the same position.. Especially seeing as how Billy Turner is likely to get the nod to start at guard this season. Drafting another your uproven guard to battle with him doesn't make a lot of sense.

Hahaha weren't you the one hammering on Byron Jones? I really can't understand most of these picks. I liked your last mock a lot more.

Hmm I'm unsure about Harris over Rollins. You know the Steelers like their CBs full of raw potential. Rollins fits the bill there, not to mention he puts a lot of effort into tackles and being physical

I knew there was going to be a mistake somewhere...maybe I should get a proofreader. I also forgot that I had Walford twice in the mock, in back to back picks. It has been fixed now.
