Saints' Real Fit Isn't Who the Mock Sends

New Orleans needs the offensive line fixed, and Trevor Goosby sits 3rd on the model but only 9th in the room — the widest read on him all class. Jordan Seaton isn't far behind, three spots off between model and room. Yet the house mock has the Saints taking David Stone, a defensive lineman, at 9 — addressing none of the top three needs listed for this team. If New Orleans trusts its own board over the room's, tackle is the pick, not Stone.
