Top 5 draft targets for positions of need

Not sure why expectations were so high of him. 

He is talented.   He is capable.   I knew he wouldn't come in here and become a starter without injury. 

Players need development.  

I didn't expect him to be a superstar, but haven't seen the development in the second year, at all

He was a much more complete player.  That is development.

I think this next year- year 3- is an important year for him. 

Also depends on how the offense uses him.

Daniel Jeremiah's top 50 players heading into the Combine.  Lol at the people still pining for Styles.  Dude will be LONG gone before our slot as I noted he would be.  Go ahead a keep drafting him at #19 if y'all want to keep ruining/making unrealistic mock drafts.

There is not a universe that Bailey is a better prospect than Reese.  And if we are being honest Styles is probably a better football player he just doesnt rush the passer as much

Bailey is a better pure EDGE rusher.  Splitting hairs though, because they are ranked right next to one another; they could easily be flip-floppled.  Bailey is another one I thought would fly up the rankings and he has.  Remember, it was just a month ago he in range for us to pick.  That's the reason I stopped mocking him, along with Styles.

An example of what we need in bpa.But to your point if the room is full the value isnt the same.Need creates value.

Yep and that is why teams have different boards.  
 

I would refine the lower valued position limitation mentioned here to the bottom quarter or third of the first round. There are a lot of really good players at these low value positions taken from right around where we pick and later. All positions I guess. 

For us, some highlights 

Gamble @ 28

Beason @ 25

Kelvin Benjamin and DJ Moore went late too but man I’d be fine with trading aback a little and getting a Beason level player.

I'm seeing a lot of projections with the team drafting Keldric Faulk from Auburn with the 19th pick. Am I the only one not liking that pick? Everyone is saying he has potential this and that, but I'm not convinced that his numbers (2 sacks) will suddenly get unleashed on the pro level.

I don’t generally research these guys very hard anymore but I have seen some mocks where he would be long gone by 19.  I think I saw people saying he was a very stout run defender, and would likely pick up a few sacks. No big numbers.

Does he fit in a 4-3?  I dont think he does

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
