2013 NFL Draft - Saints Big Board

[jeanpierre]

Just thought of another scenario...

In a trade with Chiefs, Raiders, Cardinals, Jaguars, Jets and send our 2013 first round pick and a player (i.e. Chris Ivory) for their 2013 second round pick, 2013 third round pick and 2014 first round pick...

Would need to consult the draft chart to see the values...

It's not like we're doing great with our first rounders anyways...

sure you do not want to add a team or two more to that list

i would love that extra pick next year. problem is the trade of next year picks usually carry a higher price to them. so a team really really must want a player to do it. i mean really

I'm not sure I like Lane Johnson even at No. 15, I'd rather move back or use a third or fourth for a Tackle...

still need keep drew healthy and upright and stop throwing dice protecting his blind side

True, but we have options in the draft and it's not likely the two first rounders I'd want (Fisher or Joeckel) will be there at 15...

You know... had Chris Faulk not gotten injured his Senior year, he easily would have been a day 2 pick at the latest. Very highly touted and lots of upside. If he were to actually take him, no doubt in my mind he'll be a good RT right off the bat that we could develop into a LT. Would make a nice pick in the mid rounds so we wouldn't have to draft a LT high... if we were not to sign one via free agency.

Papz, if he can get healthy he could start at Left Tackle Now!

Looking at the Vikings area.Trade Saints 1st 15,for Viking 1st(25 vis Seahawks) and 2nd(52)

Otherwise a nice scenario, but Spielman - Vikes' GM - has stated that he wants as many picks in this coming draft as he can get, and I think he said in an interview that he would want to have above 10 picks.

Therefore, I see it unlikely that they'd give up a pick to move up - there's plenty of WRs in the draft who'll be available to them where they pick.

Hadn't heard that.
Hopefully others may want to trade up.

Dion Jordan reminds me of former Dolphins DE Jason Taylor...

While he was a media darling and always had nice annual sack totals, those numbers often came in bunches (i.e. Will Smith) against lesser talent and he was never a game changer...

Further, both lacked bulk and would be a serious liability in run defense...

Jordan would be better as a 4-3 DE...
