We don't exactly have the best history of drafting 1-15, so I'm good with where we are.

We will never know what the team's draft board looks like.

I DO know that this organization will pick best player available in the first round.

In Loomis I Trust!

One of the best draft picks we ever had was pick number 23 so I think we can find a good pick at 17.

If we dont upgrade our front we.ll have to go db in first. Period

Emmit Smith, Nate Solder, DJ Williams, Damian Woody were all picked at 17 just to mention a few.

combine and scouting hype will push some players higher than they should be. Lets hope a solid player drops into our lap.

nice thing about 15 - 20 they are historical high pick range traded.

I think we will be sitting ok either way.

It is the saints historical injury picks in the mid round that worries me

Trade it away and get 2 2nd round picks

Give me six or seven, six or seven round draft picks. We seem to do well with them.

The good news is the team is only a handful of players away from a top 15 defense. And that's all we need to make another SB run.

Let Spags find his OLB, DT, and play-making DE.

Round 1 possibilities:
DE/DT Sheldon Richardson Mizzou
OT Taylor Lewan
CB Johnthan Banks 6-2/185 Finally a CB over 6 feet!!!
