I'm not that high on Norman, but he would probably be the tallest CB in the Saints' roster, so I wouldn't be against the pick. But I'd like to see them getting after either Casey Hayward or DeQuan Menzie if they'll pick a CB this high. Tony Bergstrom would be a great pick up for the Saints at RT. Travian Robertson could be a good pick up, but I think he might still be available at lower rounds, 6th-7th. I like the pick of Jack Crawford, but I doubt he'll be available at his point in the draft. I'd at least exchange Crawford's pick with Robertson's pick. He'll be a work in progress for sure, but he might end up being a JP-P type of a player for the Saints under Spags' tutelage. I can't argue with Cattouse in the 6th round, since he would be great for depth as he can play both safety positions. Antoine McClain could be a replacement for Nicks if everything works out with his progression to the NFL level, but, in any case, he's a big pile of humanity who'll be difficult to push around. I'd be fine with the pick of Tank Carder with the last pick, but I would like for the Saints to also pick up a WR prospect at some point in the draft, and the 7th might be a good spot for a low-risk/high-reward type of a pick at that position. |

A few wanted Randle drafted out of LSU with feedback is mixed - some say he goes as early as late first round, others say he lacks speed to be drafted on first day. With Colson signing, I doubt we pick another possession receiver though Randle looks like he'd be a good one... We still need front seven help on defense and offensive tackle help as well... The Saints need to evaluate the Safeties and decide if this really is the best pair of starters we could have... Tight End depth/youth would help... What will be do? We'll draft Running Backs and Cornerbacks
