With the #1 overall pick the Saints select...

I know it's early but with Drew hurt and possibly out a while or worse yet playing hurt there is a very good chance we secure a top 3 pick. Even know we grabbed GG in rd3 last year what's the chance we go after another QB like MSU QB Conner Cook or PSU QB Christian Hackenberg. Both would probably be a top 10 pick. I would trade back and get a butt load of picks securing the defense and WR position. Just a thought after seeing the Saints lose to the second worst team in the league.

A Center to eventually become the starter in a year or two.

I say draft Nkemdiche or Treadwell and trade for AJ McCarron who I am high on.

Joey Bosa from Ohio State. May be the next JJ Watt

Re: With the #1 overall pick the Saints select...

I can tell you it won't be Hackenberg. He's absolutely horrible. He was touted coming out of highschool, but has done nothing in three years. I really don't see a franchise QB in next year's draft, much like this past year to be honest.

Which would put us in the old best player available mode. That being the case, IF we get that high of a pick it probably would someone like Joey Bosa or Robert Nkemdiche, as others have mentioned above. It's been said for a while that Bosa could be the top pick, but Nkemdiche is picking up some steam.

We could certainly use an elite WR, but I'm not sure there is one worth taking that high yet. As the college season goes along maybe someone else will stand out.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Sounds like we better wait before we tank. Not enough good QB's available.

A stud 3-4 NT, a stud G, a sure handed big body WR, a SS, and RT. The nose could shore the front 7 a SS that is an enforcer for the backfield(Vacarro will never be Polomalu) a G to take Evans aging self out to pasture a a WR that can contend with cb's.Fire the entire D staff and get a true 3-4 DC in with the staff he chooses not like Ryan was dealt. I can't help feel sorry for Ryan the way he was done.

We need to get the best QB available whether in the draft or FA to get us over the hump the next 2 or 3 years. Keep rebuilding. Payton is a great coach.
