We sit with two picks in a range where top tier talent always falls because other teams reach.

Therefore we're likely to get two quality starters and I'm prepared for that to be WR & T or LB and DE. I'll be happy either way.

I'm also prepared (actually expecting) a trade back into a higher round for someone we covet.

If the draft doesn't go our way, it seems like two veteran probowlers at S and WR can be signed immediately.

I agree with your premise, but after the Payton Turner pick last year I’ll be a little bothered if DE is one of first two picks. DT and Safety are in more need for us than DE IMO.

I think it's a real possibility the Saints go edge rusher on Day 2 though.
