For all those ready for the draft...

And for those who were 3 weeks before we were eliminated - a question:

Will one draft class really be enough to right the ship?

We've got so many holes we need to draft a handful of pro bowl starters and I don't see that happening.

We usually address our needs in free agency.

2006 Draft Class was pretty impactful.

A good guard and a good center and we are back to having the number one offense in football. a healthy Armstead, Cooks and Byrd cant hurt either. Get a good linebacker and I think we just need a middle of the pack defense.

I agree! Our good center is already on the roster in Lelito I believe

We could really bolster the O Line next year by drafting the OT from a&m. Move Armstead to Guard being how athletic he is

We don't need that much. An inside LB to replace Hawthorne, something resembling a #2 corner, a stud guard and a new year/fresh start. This was a snakebitten season from the 1st game.

NT is a need also. No push = a long day. I could see a C and G being drafted. My main concern is an ILB. Then solid depth on both the O and the D. I think we can pick up a good #2 CB in FA.

Well thanks again Saints, you screw up the season and now you screw up our draft pick just great.

This team is so freaking stupid and frustrating to watch. You give your div rival a Quarterback and lose a top 10 pick. Good job saints couldnt have capped it any worse. Thank the lord galette didnt get that sack bonus screw him.
