Its funny how in years past, we would have been talking about this weeks ago. I say we spend our time focusing on the playoffs...free agency is less than 2 months away. The draft is only 2 months after that. There will be plenty time to discuss that once the season is done. All that being said, the Saints will target a CB in the draft AND in free agency. They will add a MLB and TE to compete for starting positions...and they will add depth to the DT, WR, and OL positions. Also, I'll bet dollars to donuts that Payton drafts a QB on the second day to groom and play around with. He loves the challenge of grooming QB's.

Saints fans are a superstitious bunch. I actually have a friend who is passing on next week's game because the two games he went to this year were the Ravens and the Bengals and he thinks he's a jinx. I think we're all talking about the draft now because it's bad luck to talk about the playoffs and make predictions. :)

hey d24pick thats not my list. :P
add to it man. tells us all about frank okam outta texas.
oh never mind
Heading into this season, there was speculation - here and elsewhere - that a monster year up front for Okam could rocket him up to the early first round of the draft - perhaps as high as the top five. He certainly didn't have that monster season that we expected, but Okam's potential is unquestionably high. Should he take his chances this season and let a team draft him on his potential? He certainly could, and he'd likely still be a first or second round pick, but when you're drafted on potential - and not performance - your draft stock takes a hit. So it depends what Okam wants. If he's comfortable just being drafted on the first day, leaving now is a perfectly justifiable decision. If he wants a shot at the big bucks, though - he'd be wise to come back to Texas with the goal of having a truly dominant senior season.
