Re: Triplett trades up

I agree with Danno. We don't have enough holes to be trying so hard to fill them. Everybody wants to build a team that has no holes. Impossible. Every team does. Even the super bowl winners.

Re: Triplett trades up

I would be like most and only trade up for Watkins. (If at all) he is the only one that i would trade up for, we could still get a impact player at 27. So there is no need to go up. Down yes up no. But thats just me.

Mike Evans would be worth trading up for. Brees would make that boy a star.

A#1 WR is a prime need it might be the time to roll the dice . Might want to double down and pick two.Maybe even three. Loomis gets what he wants.

There is the rub. there how many WR in round 1 that deserve that title?

i count maybe 1.

as #2 there are what 2 maybe 3?

specialty WR / slot another 2 ?

pass. pray one maybe 2 QB gets draft in the top 26 then kidnap the best one on the board and hold him for ransom.

now that is a better plan in my book as long as it is not a QB named Johnny

Cool Re: Triplett trades up

Lets look at the holes others post the saints do not have,1st hole at wr a colston ageing-morgan comming off back to back ir-toon could be a bust-is cadet someone to replace sproles skill set-watson age at te position-no backup left tackle byrce an marcel are right tackles now the back up left tackle is a ex arena player.no back up center to push letio-a kicker at end of line age wise hope he has another year-6 big d linemen no depth saints keep 7 at position-only 4 safteys on roster think they keep 5 so need a 5th saftey-you always look to up grade the 5th cb spot that takes up a draft pick-two olb coming off ir no quality depth-is it time to draft a qb yes they like the tulane qb but good to have a late pick to compete with the tulane qb if both look good in camp then cut the vet back up younger an cheaper if not one gos to pt squad till next year. That a lot of HOLES you could use 12 picks two alone at wr to up grade roster an now they have 7 picks. Some wish a trade up that could leave them with 5 picks no TRADE ups we need trade downs- go from 7 to say 9 picks hope for three ufda gems an upgrade roster get younger an cheaper young players also less likely to get hurt but you need enough rookies of top quality to allow this long term up grade of roster.Do not get hung up on one player look at the overall roster depth :

Do we know that Allen Robinson is a Megatron? Paul Richardson? No, in fact defenses I would say has gotten weaker in the Big 10 which is why I am not high at all on Roby. We need to see how those players will do against NFL competition. Pac 12 has produced NFL talent, so has the big 12, and SEC. ACC sort of has.
