Considering that they've only had 2 2nd round draft pick during the recent 5 drafts - 2010: Charles Brown and 2008: Tracy Porter - it's pretty difficult to evaluate their 2nd round draft success.

But just to give you the other recent 2nd rounders:

2006: Roman Harper
2005: Josh Bullocks
2004: Devery Henderson & Courtney Watson
2003: Jonathan Stinchcomb

So, I'd say that they've had some pretty good picks in the 2nd round, and I'd take that 2nd rounder back in a heart beat even if it meant that the franchise had to do some groveling in order to make it happen.

A pick is a pick is a pick, and the higher they are, the more valuable they are.

From that list only Devery was decent which goes to show this team can't draft in the 2nd round

It's like this organization doesn't value a 2nd rounder the same way us fans do

IDK, naturally you are entitled to your opinion, but I think most would evaluate at least Porter, Harper and Stinchcomb to also be at least decent 2nd round picks.

No team hits on their every pick, on every round, and each and every year, so we have to think about this within that framework, and based on that - I'd have to say that the Saints have faired quite well with their 2nd round picks.

Agreed. I'd say the only two of that group that they really tanked on were Watson and Bullocks. The jury is still out on Brown, but so far, not so good. Devery, Stinch, Porter, and Harper turned out to be beneficial for the Saints in one way or another.

Dont hold your breath waiting on Goddell to do anything for the Saints. We always do worst with our first rounders

After he leaves New Orleans in February, we will be lucky to have a franchise. This City is going to show it's A$$ to him whenever the opportunity presents itself. And outside of anything illegal, I'm going to love every second of it. Screw that Ba$tard!!

I think he'd like to see an incident free Superbowl and what better way to appease the natives than restoring that draft pick the week before the Superbowl.

It won't keep some folks quiet, but it'll help.

Godhell you can kiss my arse. Keep your 2nd round black mail attempt. He wouldn't be giving us anything anyway, he would simply be screwing us out of other draft picks. No f$#&ing thank you.

Only times the Saints hit on their 2nd rounder was Devery, Vilma and Shockey. Only including them two cause it took trading that pick to acquire them. As for Goddell, that POS can keep the 2nd rounder and shove it, I hope the city show how displeased we are with this ******** when he shows up for SuperBowl week
