That's a good point; now let me offer three counter points...

First, if a young Jerry Rice fell to No. 32 would you draft him even with a WR corps of Colston, Henderson, Meachem, Moore, et al?

Second, as someone has alluded, depth is a common quality to all championship clubs...

Third, the Saints are going to have a big target on their back this year; with that, teams will have more Saints footage than any other this coming season; so why not have an extraordinary talent added to the game planning to give that extra look to defenses?

I would be more than happy to drastically improve the front seven on defense; but I even agree, you take the best player available...
