But K, what do you do with Gardner? If anything, this Saints roster is thin on boundary, outside-press CBs right now...

At least P-Rob and P.J. can spot-start for you a couple games per season at the outside CB2 spot...

Halloween, you might want to flip Walker Little and Davis there; Walker Little for sure is being talked about in the first round among the more credible scouting services...

Personally Davis is a 3rd grade, though a late 2nd reach would certainly be in his range; but Little is skyrocketing up boards right now...

My favorite tackle, one I hope we draft, is Northern Iowa's Spencer Brown; he could start as a Rookie, allow you to move Ramczyk to LT, pay him accordingly...

You could get some serious draft capital for Armstead, and unload his contract number with a sign and trade...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

105. DE Patrick Jones II (Pitt)

I’m still not sold on Stokes being a first round talent but I’m not a know-it-all.
IF our CB2 out of Farley, Horn, or Newsome isn't there, nor a really elite top 3 WR doesn't fall, I'd move back and get more Day 2 picks...

There's no DL nor OL out of the top 10 that's a R1 pick to me, nor a QB not named Trevor or Zach...

Aside from QB1 (Brees), and CB2 (JJenkins), we're essentially returning the same roster, so it's not like we have that many holes as you've argued in past posts...

Same roster minus thirteen departures. That's basically a fourth (24.5%) of our 53 man roster from 2020. That's not including the possible loss of Lattimore.

I'd prefer Ceedy at safety ... good range and instincts.

Malcolm Jenkins is old.

I personally would like to see Little tutored by Armstead for a year, if Armstead goes down then Little gets worked in early. Davis is rising to a late first or early second close enough at where we pick. I don't want Ram moved, he's nasty where he's at, nothing gets by him.
