Agree, or trade down for more picks.

Re: Argument against this?

It takes another team to trade down, it's not as easy as you think

play with words, okay it is a first that is two picks ahead of a second, who cares, it is as good as a second, so we are not losing anything there. Again, I am not saying we will, but if the guy we want requires it I say we pull the trigger

If the Saints were one star player away from the Superbowl it would be different, but they are not. With 9 picks they are set up to make significant improvement with young players. Brees time is limited, the Saints can't afford to blow another draft.
I understand your point, but that wasn't when we had 5 picks in the first 3 rounds

I could see our draft play out like this:

Trade a 2nd to get a higher 1st. Then draft at 31

Trade a 4th to get back into the 2nd.
our 4rth went for Unger

There ya go, and if we're lucky we can trade everything and own the entire 7th round...

Why the hell would we need more than 9 pick...?

Didn't say it was easy. I simply meant if they have the opportunity they should trade down.

Under Loomis/Peyton the Saints seldom trade down, most times they trade up

Re: Argument against this?

You guys do know who our GM is right? Do you really think he's magically going to get conservative with the draft? Loomis trades up... Even when he doesn't have the extra draft picks to make easier. I don't think we trade up from 13... But we're using that extra 3rd round pick to help us move up from 31 or 44.
