Is this the year to covet a player enough to spend additional draft capital on him by moving up for a player? We are not one player away from a championship at the moment and I hope we stand pat and take BPA. Or they could move down and get additional draft picks to reload with. But, everyone knows that we don't operate that way.

Yup. That's why I expect them to move up at some point.

I can definitely see this happening.


25. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (VIA NYG): EDGE MYLES MURPHY, CLEMSON
Trade: New Orleans sends Nos. 29, 115, 165; New York sends No. 25, No. 240

Saints 2018 first-round edge defender Marcus Davenport just departed in free agency to the Minnesota Vikings, and 2021 first-round edge defender Payton Turner has come along slowly with just 315 total snaps over his first two seasons.

The beauty with Murphy is that while he builds his arsenal as a pass rusher, with some technical refinement necessary to add to his nasty bull rush and long-arm moves, he can be a positive against the run early in his career. Murphy’s 80.2 run-defense grade over the past two seasons is a top-30 mark among FBS edge defenders, and his 21.2% positively graded play rate against the run is 20th. He has a rare combination of high-end strength to set the edge and disrupt plays at the point of attack and speed to pursue ball carriers.

Interior offensive line makes a lot of sense here, as well, but New Orleans will likely be able to target the position with their second-round pick at No. 40 overall.
