![]() Matthew Butler is a guy who raised his draft stock tremendously after the East-West Shrine Bowl. Round Four Compensatory Pick: Defensive Tackle Matthew Butler, Tennessee Deep threat with size provides plenty of mismatches. ![]() Also, he’s running the ball on some plays to add to his resume. And he can play as a kickoff returner as well. He’s averaged over 20 yards a catch in the last couple of years. The Bisons were the only team that gave him a scholarship offer from high school. He’s a guy wanting to prove himself coming from an FCS school in North Dakota St. And Watson will be much better having a filled-out frame. Standing at 6-foot-4 and weighing 211 pounds gives room for plenty of growth in his frame. Christian Watson stands out to be a healthy target in the NFL. Saints finally add a player to their wide receiver corps. Round Four: Wide Receiver Christian Watson, North Dakota St. Nothing more enticing to an aggressive defense than a guy running over people on offense. Walker is a 5-foot-10 low rider carrying 210 pounds to bulldoze defenders into submission. Getting the tough yards when the defense is stacked is more than critical down the stretch. The Saints could use a young bowling ball back for the short third down plays. And there’s no reason to believe otherwise on the offensive end. ![]() The defensive-minded coach will look to dominate and maul offenses. Having a new coach Dennis Allen means a different philosophy. Round Three Compensatory Pick: Running Back Kenneth Walker III, Michigan State But make no mistake, Kinnard is an unrelenting assassin reliable to play 100% all the time. Could use improvement on lateral movement and sliding outside for pass blocking. Surely, Kinnard could play inside at guard to be able to use his power. He has nice size and proportion to be able to leverage opponents. Kinnard comes from the SEC playing for Kentucky at right tackle. Round 1: Cornerback Ahmad ‘Sauce’ Gardner, Cincinnati The Saints have eight draft picks including three compensatory picks. And wide receiver Marques Colston came in the seventh round, to turn out to be one of the best receivers in Saints history. The Saints, for example, got a pretty good player undrafted running back Pierre Thomas just name one. Teams often go off the grid in the later rounds. Also, the draft picks after the fourth round may not show up on the ESPN big board or the Pro Football Focus top 250. New Orleans Saints 2022 Mock Draft 1.0īut don’t be disappointed if the Saints don’t draft a quarterback and seven wide receivers with a cornerback. Basically, those mock draft sites are no doubt looking for “pick for clicks.” To be clear, sifting through the mocks delivering free entertainment is harmless if it strikes your fancy. However, the obvious pick of quarterback for the last few years should present a bright red flag. Picking all seven is about as likely as getting struck by a meteor twice in a week. While picking the exact trifecta of the first three picks is practically impossible. Actually, the plethora of mock drafts come with a “buyer beware” caution sign along with it. This is the season of mock draft deluge from ESPN to CBS. The first installment of the New Orleans Saints mock drafts is released.
