This makes no sense. If the Saints chose before the rams, how is it possible that the ram's selection could force any decision by the Saints?

Jury is out. In a deep draft couldn't we have used more picks in later rounds. WTF - the inner had 13 f- en picks & we had 5

Payton said the phone didn't really ring with someone looking for a tradde partner in the first round. There wasn't much choice whether we should stay pat at 15 or not.

I've come to terms with this pick. He'll be a good player. I just had my heart set on trading down.
