I say draft the best player on the board. And I think we should take Tahj Boyd at some point in the draft.

I'm not impressed with roster so for so draft a OLB, a CB and maybe WR OH and TACKLE to protected your 100 million dollar best player. Just my opinion.

Re: Current Saints Roster... Draft to fill the holes.

Round 1 - Jordan Matthews - WR - Vanderbilt
Round 2 - Keith McGill - CB - Utah (Or Stanley Jean Baptiste)
Round 3 - Jack Mewhort/Seantrel Henderson - OT - OSU/Miami
Round 4 - Weston Richburg - C - Colorado State

All of those could be slight reaches to be honest, but almost guaranteed to be had at those points unless another club falls in LOVE with one of them. They fill our needs though and are all mature prospects with great heads on their shoulders and large upside. We have good coaches, so I am confident with picking that type of player. After that is where it gets a little more difficult. We certainly need a cover Linebacker. After that, I think if any combination of OLB/DE/CB/OL/WR depth is available....you take the BPA. A la EJ Gaines, Michael Schofield, Pagan from Alabama, Devin Street maybe, Denicos Allen, Max Bullough. Those types for the two fives and a six. No seven due to Parys Haralson.

I'm big on Jordan Matthews.

Re: Current Saints Roster... Draft to fill the holes.

i am all for BPA even if it means we end up with more safeties in the draft.

round 1 i would like an impact player on offense. As of right now if the pre drafts hold true i am looking at these two

Jordan Matthews - skills to become a #1 WR we have never had
Brandin Cooks - closest thing to Darren Sproils

He's not the tallest of QB's, but he has an extremely strong arm, can be very smart in the pocket, quick feet and has the potential to be a sleeper starter for a NFL team. Being that I am in SC, all I see and hear are Clemson and S. Carolina. I like this idea.

Sorry guys but when I watch the tape on Boyd, all I see is a slightly bigger version of Troy Smith with decent accuracy.

Pass.
