Re: 2013 NFL Draft - Saints Big Board
 
Potential Trade Partners with two picks in the second round and Trade Values:

New Orleans - 1.15(15) [1050]

Cincinnati - 2.5(37)[530] (from OAK), 2.21(53) [370], 3.22(86) [160] = [1060]

Miami - 2.10(42) [480], 2.22(54) [360] (from IND), 3.15(47) [195], 3.20(52) [170]* = [1035]

*Not Included in Total Points

San Francisco - 2.2(34) [560] (from KC), 2.29 [292], 3.12 [210] (from CAR), 3.31 [120]* = [1062]

*Not Included in Total Points

Analysis: There are some potential strong trading partners if we're willing to move down into the second round

Teams with two picks in the first round

St. Louis - 1.16(16) [1000], 1.22(22) [780] (from WAS), 2.14(46) [440], 3.16(80) [190]

Minnesota - 1.23 [760], 1.25 [720] (from SEA), 2.20(52) [380], 3.21(85) [165]

Analysis: St. Louis and Minnesota seem unlikely trading partners unless we're willing to offer more in draft picks or they have a player they really covet...

Trade away a expensive Guard for a cheaper option and a pick.
Not a bad scenario

Draft Warmack,Trade him to Rams for there LT and a pick.Drop salary cap,gain a LT and gain a pick

They just signed Jake Long to a contract we couldn't afford so that Left Tackle option doesn't work...

Their former Left Tackle Rodger Saffold isn't returning phone calls from Rams - CBSSports.com

Rodger Saffold was the 33rd pick in the second round of the 2010 NFL Draft; Saffold was named to several All-Rookie teams.

However, Saffold was drafted under former Coach Spagnuolo; Coach Fisher, who didn't draft him, feels he is better suited to Right Tackle - more likely though they are avoiding Left Tackle money as he's in the final year of his rookie contract and are doing a short term rent with Jake Long...

That's the Tackle I'm talking about.In the last year of his deal,obviously it depends on the money he wants.

And we have a little over 3 mil in cap room...

I'd send a fourth round pick to the Rams for Saffold, conditional All-Pro honors making it a Third Round Pick for next year...

Too bad we threw away our seventh round pick on Barrett Rudd...

British discus thrower hoping to make it in the NFL | ProFootballTalk

This guy would look great with our other developmental defensive end kids..

Re: 2013 NFL Draft - Saints Big Board
 
Im not sure
He has allready said he wont retire from discus throwing and wants to go back to it around 30.I think he is more interested in the money than the game.If he wanted to be a football player he could have used his track-field ability to get a scholarship and learned football then rather than now in his early 20`s

Ummm, yeah. That's some definite UFA/practice squad material. If he's around. Just the kind of guy for scouts to slobber over and see if they can trick a team into wasting a draft pick. A great athlete does not necessarily make a great football player. Then add in one who grew up believing football is a sport you play in short-shorts, running around kicking others' balls.... Just sayin'...

Well, in regards to Rodger Saffold, I think the Saints should wait to contact the Rams at the end of the second day of the draft for a deal; we'd need to speak to his agent to see what kind of salary he wants as well...
