Our offense already gained a huge advantage this offseason, his name is Sean Payton

And if trading back is not an option...? I think you go with the highest graded player on your list.

Well sure, if you're handcuffed to the pick. Even still, I'd probably rather see them reach a little for either an OT or defensive player than take a WR. I know Tavon Austin is all the rage, but I personally had never heard of him before the combine, and I worry that he's a workout warrior more than a baller. Now let me say for the record that I haven't looked too much into his college stats, so maybe I'm way wrong here.. then there's Patterson from Tennessee..and I think we all know about WR's from Tennessee.

Anyway its only my opinion, and I'm sure that they'll probably end up picking someone that'll leave us all scratching our heads. In all my years as a saints fan I can count on one hand the number of times they've picked someone in the first couple of rounds that I actually wanted to see them take. I'm sure a lot of you know exactly where I'm coming from on that one.

Really never herd of him, this guy is a WR from West Virginia and a very good one. Projected to be a slot guy but can also can be used out of the backfield. You must not watch very much college football to not have herd of him, no offense.

None taken... And no, I really don't. Not that I don't want to, but I work all day every Saturday, so I just don't get the chance.

Well, all I can say is that I hope they don't blow it again this year. Especially if they're unable to trade back for more picks. Just make it count

I'll agree with that, please don't waste this chance can't afford to considering the salary cap issues

He was fun to watch last year. Plus he's used to playing for a team with no defense. Just sayin'...

If he's available and the best player on their board, I would almost bet money that they take him.
