    I haven’t. I just have a list of guys I would like in the first 3-4 rounds. I honestly haven’t done as much research on this draft class as usual. Been busy training/coaching.

    Junior Coulson is Nate Tice and Dane Brugler’s #1 LB.

    Compare him to a bigger / better Nick Bolton or better Derrick Barnes. Great in coverage and man, very good instincts, and he’s a very good (not elite athlete). Great downhill!

    If I read anything into that, we may focus on production over potential. With that in mind, this draft seems to have an older bent to it because of the Covid season factor. That could lead to thinking we focus on players with production, experience, and from the bigger schools.

    If we could send mills, our first second and a later pick to Denver for Fashanu, I’d do it.

    Did any draftee take the S2 test this year or is it dead?

    I hope we sign more quality depth players in the draft.
    We need another good guard, safety, and DT.

    Shows they go after the guys they want - better than waiting for the leftovers.

    If there is someone they thought wouldn't drop, drop.
    You could trade the 42nd and a later extra pick for 49ers 30th selection.
    They owe us one.

    Another team they could trade with,
    Patriots because of history and they could use an extra 4th rounder.
    42nd and 4th for their 32nd pick.


    Saints don't have a 3rd or 4th round pick.
    You could take advantage of that.

    Imagine if we pulled out a trade to move up and snag DT Zer'Zhan Newton.
