Like Danno pointed out - if we shore up a few more positions in FA I wouldn't hate them for going with who could be the most dynamic offensive player in this years draft.

A future lineup of Joe Morgan, Nick Toon (if healthy) and Austin would be an awesome "reload" in the receiver department for Mickey and co.

While I like all three players(I love Tavon Austin), if this is our future and considered an awesome reload, I think we'd be in trouble. Realistically, you may have a #3 receiver in Morgan, a 4 in Toon, and a really good slot guy with Austin. I might be generous here too.

Lots of WR's in the draft... while Austin is a fun and exciting player to have, I think we should look in a different direction.

The only position from the offensive side of the ball that I'd be OK with using the 1st rounder on would be an OT, anything other than that position and I'd like to see a defensive player picked instead.

pick him and sell him off to the vikes for picks

Even if we shore up a few more positions, this is the worst D in league history...... EVERY PICK Besides Terron Armstead in the third

should be a defensive selection, including the one or two extra picks we get for trading down

WAS the worst defense... And can we throw out 2012, once and for all?

How are they already better you ask? Here are my reasons in chronological order:

Payton returns
Switch 3-4 announced (better suited)
Ryan signed
Re-signed key veterans of the Saints system (#somethingtoprove)
New CB with skills, upside
Depth coming via FA and draft

It's never a good idea to count on rookie draft picks to impact your defense.

So, let's see what unfolds before the draft. We may actually be celebrating a 1st round pick on OFFENSE

I sick of reading 'worst defence ever'.
That was not the worst defence ever.The last time looked yards don't loose games,points do.
Worst defence ever 1981 Baltimore Colts

2011-2012 Season *

All I've gotta say about that.

Yeah, but who cares about the Colts? For your sake let's change it to a defense that was record breaking in its badness, or a defense that received more laughs than last season's Big Bang Theory, or... Look, it's left a really bad taste in many of our mouths around here and that's the kind of thing that doesn't go away by us keeping our mouths shut.
