I'm finding as many excuses as possible to not work today, so in honor of an 0-4 start and the pole position in the Glen Dorsey sweepstakes here are some draft stats:

The Saints have drafted 57 players since 2000. The breakdown as follows:
QB 3
RB 3
FB 3
WR 10
TE 2
O-Line 10 (1C, 3G, 6T)
D-Line 12 (7DE, 5DT)
LB 7
CB 4
S 3
K 0
P 0
LS/KR 2

20 (35%) are still with the Saints. The league average from 94-04 was 42% and that number is probably higher for an 8 year span. (SI.com - Writers - Dr. Z: Charting the past decade of draft picks - Thursday July 8, 2004 6:01PM)

34 (60%) are still in the league (14 went to other teams and still play).

39% of the Saints' picks were spent on linemen. 9/24 postions or 37.5% (including K and P) fall in that category.

15 picks have been in the first two rounds (2RB, 3WR, 3OL, 4DL, 1LB, 2S). 10 still play for the Saints, 3 for other teams and 2 (Courtney Watson and Sullivan) are no longer playing.

There's no real point here, I just like #s. There's a good chance my counts are off, but I bet they're all pretty close.
