Round 3: Reggie Robinson, CB, Tulsa

Marshon Lattimore and Janoris Jenkins will probably open the season as the starting corners. If they can snag Robinson in the third round, don’t be surprised to see him playing a sizable role as we get deeper into the season. They need to call in all the help they can get, as the NFC South’s already elite receiving corps just had a current WWE champion pull up to the party.

Reggie Robinson brings the size you want to see in a corner at 6-foot-1, 205 pounds. In addition to that, he had a really solid combine performance that went under the radar running a 4.44 with a 36-inch vertical jump.

Robinson played a lot of press coverage in a conference that likes to throw the ball and was able to hold his own. He is a guy who can disrupt routes at the line of scrimmage with and improved his ball skills in 2019 with 3 interceptions and 13 pass deflections. The New Orleans Saints need more secondary help, and Robinson is a guy who can help right away.

Round 4: Antonio Gaudy-Golden, WR, Liberty

This could be one of the biggest steals of the draft if the Saints can get him late in the fourth round. Gaudy-Golden comes from a small school at Liberty but is a big target who displays some legitimate NFL traits. He has strong hands and can pluck the ball from the high point easily. At 6-foot-4, 223 pounds, he would be a great red-zone target for Drew Brees.

Gaudy-Golden is surprisingly quick for a big man, if he gets the ball in space he can make big-time plays. He is incredibly tough to tackle but will be going up against bigger, more athletic competition at the pro level. Despite the change in competition, that kind of ability should be able to translate nicely into the NFL.

He had a short career at Liberty but was able to put in back to back seasons with 1000+ yards and 10+ touchdowns. Gaudy-Golden will be one of the sought after receivers during the middle rounds of the draft due to his production and measurables.
