There aren’t many players that it feels like every New Orleans Saints’ fan would be happy with at No. 24. But, Justin Jefferson, a homegrown star from the national championship-winning LSU Tigers, would be the quintessential pick.
Sadly, in a recent mock draft by NFL.com’s Charles Davis, the Saints miss on Jefferson. It’s not that they don’t want the star receiver, but he’s drafted just a few spots ahead of their selection. Jefferson, in this mock, is the third receiver taken off the board.
However, Davis wouldn’t dare leave the Saints without another weapon for Brees in the first round.
