With the 27th pick in the NFL Draft, the New Orleans Saints select…
Bradley Roby, CB, Ohio State
Selection made by John Hendrix, Who Dat Dish
Here is the analysis on the selection:
Depending who you listen to, the New Orleans Saints needs vary from either a wide receiver, cornerback, linebacker, or offensive lineman. The Saints will benefit tremendously from Roby’s upside, and would expect him to push Corey White and Patrick Robinson for the nickel cornerback slot. Roby will evolve into a tremendous compliment opposite of Keenan Lewis from great coaching by Rob Ryan, and the teachings of veteran corner Champ Bailey. His instincts will make others think twice when throwing the ball his way.
