Evens is a shell of the player he once was. FA in 2018 yet balancing out dead money vs cap he could be cut in 2017 for a 6 million in cap savings.

Honestly I do not see a replacement on the roster much less a starter at LG.

So I see a need for a starter at LG as a must and the draft looks pretty solid at OG early on. Then draft a solid prospect to develop to take over for Evens at RG.

Round 2 Vadal Alexander RG/LG
Round 2/3 Sebastian Tretola RG

I would be surprised to see Sebastian make it out of round 2 so his team mate would work

Round 3/4 Denver Kirkland*, LG, Arkansas

Are still tops on my wish list at OG for right now

It aint a sexy draft but it would go a long way to settling a few key positions to keep Drew upright and healthy.

Peat needs to spend this off season working on his foot work to be the RT we drafted or the saints need to bite the bullet and put him at LT and TA over at RT. Peats development is key.

If the saints are to survive the next two years and go into the 2017 off season as a cash cow the has to be OL ready. I fear most of cash will be needed to on defense. You bit the bullet on an OT in round one for once do not stop there.

Besides we have a center we will be needing to sign also around that time.
