Re: here's what scares me.........
I think any offensive pick besides an offensive tackle would be a bad pick for us at #10. Tackle is one of those positions where you can just never have enough talent. I think if we took a tackle, although I'd be upset that we weren't addressing defense, would be something that you couldn't really argue with. (especially if it was a true LT that could send Brown back to RT where he belongs).

Re: here's what scares me.........
Brian Billick was an offensive minded coach... just thought I'd point that out.
We'll take the best player there at 10... and it shouldn't be a offensive player. |

Re: here's what scares me.........
I don't see any legit top ten WRs on the board, thank God. I wouldn't be opposed to Clady, though. There are some very good RBs at the top end of the draft, too. I wouldn't be surprised to see us take one of them, either.

I think if it's offense at all it will be Ryan Clady, OT, Boston College. I don't think we'll need a wide receiver with Lance coming on last year and Meachem coming in, that's why they let Henderson go and the fact that he can't catch.

Not to pick nits, but it's Boise State, not BC.

Re: here's what scares me.........
Well for one we still have issues with our O line. Brees is damn good at what he does and hides the fact our line isn't that great to carry us to the SB. I don't have a problem going Oline.
What scares me even more than drafting a WR is look at the RB's. I am more worried about drafting a RB!!! |

Re: here's what scares me.........
I still think the saints want Keith Rivers but thats just me. I dont think there is a CB or a WR worth a top 10 pick. It would tough to manage, but i wish there was some way the Saints could move down in the draft.
