Looking more and more like D-tackle first pick
this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; With just about every position on defense being addressed since the start of free agency except for d-tackle, it looks like thats the direction we will go with the first pick.Whats your take ?...

DT Trevor Laws Notre Dame. Coach O like fast guys. But not with the first pick. Third round maybe.

Trevor Laws blows, no offense QBREES9. I wouldn't want any part of that Notre Dame team, especially an undersized, overachieving defensive tackle who, what do you know, is just like Brian Young.

Re: Looking more and more like D-tackle first pick
I don't know. I really hope the Saints don't think that signing a 14 year, 5'8" corner is going to solve their secondary problem. I'm wondering if they signed Glenn to be a mentor to whatever corner they take in the first. Hopefully. We need some new, young blood.

Really looks like it now after hearing we want to trade up with the Rams to get Dorsey.
