As NFL free agency winds down, much of the talk among New Orleans Saints fans has been on a possible draft trade.

Reason? The Saints will have eight selections in the seven-round NFL Draft on April 24-25 - including No. 18 in the first round and two picks in both the second and seventh rounds. New Orleans traded this year's fourth-round selection in the deal for safety Tebucky Jones.

There are also several teams desperate to get out of the top few spots - in the hopes of avoiding huge signing bonuses and the worry about a draft-day reach that doesn't work out. But the Saints don't have their salary cap worries.
