Our offense needs the pick in my opinion
Our team getting conservative on the last drives of games instead of full bore forward certainly hurt us

you can't run three plays up the middle to eat the clock out on the Panthers

we have to have the guts to continue to call aggressive plays

THIS^^^

You nailed it, Cooks gives us another reliable option to pound that final nail into their coffin.

I think they should trade Graham for a first and second. Then we would have 1,1,2,2,3,4,5,5,and6....I think we could build a team with that

Re: Triplett trades up

Saints have had few draft picks as compared to nfl average.The draft is deep at wr take one at 27th pick or 58th pick or trade down to early 2nd round but do not trade up.Saints need to get younger an cheaper this is how patriots an 49ers have done they averaged almost double the amount of total draft picks as compared to Saints.They need a wr/olb/saftey/a big 3-4 deffensive lineman/a back up left tackle an a lineman who can back up or push letio at the guard-center position along with a scat back running back.That takes 7 picks a trade down to get say 2 more picks to be used on a qb and another wr or other position for depth.Point is Saint need all the picks they can get do not get hung up on a player a trade from 27th to say 19th most likely a 19 th pick not a world class player.
