    If the Saints take Fred Davis or another TE in the 2nd we can almost be sure the Saints do not feel confident the Shockey deal will not go thru.

    Kiper graded their pick a C- and the fans rated it a C.

    That's pathetic for that high a pick.

    I think at this point it's not going to happen, which is a shame. Yes, Shockey has locker room issues, but that's mostly because he wasn't getting the ball in New York. He will most definitely get the ball under Payton (like he did as a rookie).

    I'm hoping for Kenny Phillips. I don't think Talib will be available.

    With the 17th pick, the Detroit Lions select WR Limas Sweed. :eek:

    If it happens it will not be until after the draft but I do not think he will be a Giant next year.

    Ok, the Detroit pick of Gosder Cherilus? They were in a PERFECT position to do whatever they wanted and Matt Millen blows it yet again.

    Top 5 Defensive Backs in 2008 Draft

    1. Leodis McKelvin CB Troy 5-10¼ 190 4.38 95
    2. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie CB Tennessee State 6-1½ 184 4.33 94
    3. Mike Jenkins CB South Florida 5-10¼ 197 4.38 93
    4. Aqib Talib CB Kansas 6-0¾ 202 4.44 92
    5. Brandon Flowers CB Virginia Tech 5-9¾ 189 4.55 91

    Cromartie is gone, I would be happy with any of the other 4.

    18 picks down, 21 to go before the Saints next pick. Should be able to get one of these.

    Let's get a DB, people.

    Focus!
