Exactly - we'd have to trade someone like Ellis and a fourth to swap into the mid second round in the hopes of getting him...

I wouldn't mind the Saints taking him in the 3rd if they think he is BPA besides him, Spence and Kendricks ... who else would be there in the 3rd and make an immediate impact on defense, I just love Wolfe because he seems like a guy that Spags could help reach his full potential

Saints got lucky that in a year where they don't pick till the 3rd, there will be some outstanding defensive talent still on the board, I wouldn't even mind them selecting a corner if they feel he's BPA, just use the pick on defense

This still holds true, although losing the 2nd round pick has hurt the Saints' chances coupled with the fact that Wolfe's stock has risen a lot since February.

But, in any case, any of these three guys would provide the Saints with a young talented/mobile/tall DT, which they've lacked in past seasons - much like what Spags had in NY with Canty.

Will we see trades of players for draft picks?!?

This is who I'm liking this week...

***Updated***

JP's 2012 Saints Mock Draft

R3 Josh Norman, DB, Coastal Carolina

R4 Brandon Hardin, SS, Oregon State

R5 Tank Carder, OLB, TCU

R6 Elvis Fisher, OT, Missouri

R6 Blake Decristopher, OT, Virginia Tech

R6 Travian Robertson, DT, South Carolina

R7 David Paulson, TE, Oregon

CheramieIII · 04-21-2012, 09:42 AM

R2 Saints trade pick 3 in the 6th and our round four pick to New England and pick JANORIS JENKINS, CB, North Alabama. I know the guy has had alot of off field problems but he's a first round talent and a steal for us.
R3 Brandon Tyler, FS, LSU. Another head hunter on the D.
R5 Greg Childs, WR, Arkansas. 4.39 40 to replace Meacham oh yea!
R6 Garth Gerhart, C/G, Arizona State. Not the best yet but never gives in. Will take a couple of seasons to develop.
R6 Micanor Regis, DT, Miami. Has the size but needs some work.
R7 Jaime Blatnick, DE Oklahoma St. Developmental player but has the motor and smart.

I want the Coastal Carolina CB and Baptiste at DT

FinSaint · 04-21-2012, 09:55 AM

The Saints only have 5 picks in this year's draft, right?

3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th - because that other 6th round pick from the 'Skins isn't happening as the conditions weren't met by Jammal Brown.

I believe you're correct!

I seriously doubt that Josh Norman will still be available in the 3rd when we pick... even though he is projected as a 3rd rounder

No DT?!

Sorry, but I can't agree with that seeing as this year you can get a good DT even with a low pick and the Saints desperately need depth at DT.
