Lol, you're probably right.

However, I will say that last year, quite a few analysts/mocks called it on Olave.

Agreed that Safet/Nickel position needs to be filled before round 5 I think there's real value in trading back this year being able to fill multiple holes

So does that mean we're picking another Ohio St Safety ... Or is LSU now in play?

DT Mazi Smith, Michigan

Big guy (6'3/335), but quick. 3tech guy and has a knack for creating pressure. Our corners could eat. Mid-round flyer.

Saints need to shore up the D line. We need to get a bit nastier in those trenches. See Niners & Philly.

Keep an eye on him.

Personally, I like the idea of trading back and getting a few more draft picks that are affordable. But that is not our mode of operation and I don't know if we can teach that old dog a new trick.

That was fun

Tried a few more drafts. They are harder to do now with the changes as a result of the trades.
