2019 NFL mock draft: Josh Allen heads to the 49ers
By Brad Weiss
The New Orleans Saints were the best team in the NFC in 2018, putting together the best record, and locking up home field advantage throughout the playoffs. The No. 1 overall seed in the NFC Playoffs, they are led by a Hall of Fame quarterback in Drew Brees, who is looking to win his second Super Bowl for the city of New Orleans.
During the 2018 NFL Draft, the Saints traded their 2019 first round pick to the Green Bay Packers, which means the Pack will be picking the final selection of round one. They definitely need to bring in a safety with their first of two first round picks, but at the end of the round, they could bring in a solid player at the wide receiver position.
One guy who should hear his name called in the first round is Kelvin Harmon, who has incredible playmaking ability. Playing for Green Bay, he would have the luxury of getting the football thrown to him by a legend in Aaron Rodgers, who put a nice season together statistically in 2018, but looked inconsistent at times.
The Saints take on the Philadelphia Eagles this weekend, and as far as they go in the playoffs, the worse this pick is going to be for Green Bay. They have a ton of new holes to fill on the roster, and with two picks in the first round next April, they should be able to bring in some young, solid talent.
