Look if we lose one pick to grab a difference maker and still have 4 picks in the top 78, I'm feeling pretty good. |

Re: Argument against this?
I say stay put at 13 and if you wanna trade up I say ok do it with the 31st pick trade a 3rd and 5th to move up to the low 20's but besides that stay where we are for the first 3 rounds
But I also wanna use the first 3 picks on defense we still have enough offense that we will be alright but defense we need all the help we can get not impressed with the guys they have added too that side of the ball at all Ideally i'd take a pass rusher and a corner in the first round |

Re: Argument against this?
No, the 3rd through 7th is a real crap shot. However the more picks you have there the more likely you are to hit on one or two. The first 3 picks are where the odds are high and the Saints need to hit on all three. Like I said, they aren't one great player away they are several quality starters away.

Re: Argument against this?
Trading up for what???
I can see maybe moving up to 10 and getting the best CB in the draft but stay put and take our chances. We have to let the draft play out. |

Re: Argument against this?
31 is all but a second, and then we have two 3's. so moving to six with 13 and 44, IMHO, makes sense. We still end up with 3 picks after that...
So basically we give up 1 pick to move 7 spots, not bad and you still end up with 4 picks in first 3 I am not saying we will, I am just saying it is good value if we do |

We have a ton of talent with very minimal holes. You could argue this team has more talent than last years, we just need them to play to their potential. I say trade up with #31 and target Beasley, keep 13 and see who falls. |

Quantity of picks doesn't equate to good drafting. And maybe the coaches and players do feel like they're 2-3 impact players away from making a difference. |
