Absolutely +1.
If the Saints FO don't select a DE/OLB in the first rd you will not get a starting one in the 2nd. Were picking @ 12 & 47, meaning it's highly likely a defensive player is getting picked ahead and 36 picks after us. If we select a WR (Treadwell) in the first, Brees jobs will appear a little easier & it's a sexy pick however it still won't help that tired a$% defense and we are looking at 7-9, 8-8 ... again.
J Reed is a day one starter, high football IQ, & immediate impact player at the position. I'd be elated if we select him at 12.
