this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Lawson or Dodd instantly make our defense better. Those two are the only ones that are true starting 43 DEs which should be available at 12. Round 2 I'm hoping Billings is there....

Re: My wish list at 12
If we could trade back a few places 15-20 range id be happy. What would we get there
Depending on where and how much a team likes somebody a 2nd ir 3 and 4th. This is one draft i would be happy to throw a future pick at too. Say trade back to 18-20 then use them extra picks and next tears first/2nd to get back into the late first early second. There is alot of defensive talent to be had this year. Could sort the front 7 out easily |

It remains to be seen if such a scenario will unfold this year, but if it does, I'd be all in favor of it. Nobody is going to be available at 12 who is so awesome that we couldn't afford to pass him up in favor of getting more picks, and a better chance of hitting a home run. |
If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Miami is tabbed for a CB and it looks to make great sense. so anyone wanting their pick of CB will be on the phone to us. perfect trade back and stay in the top 15. thats a 3rd at the least but in what world do the saints trade back? |

SJB instead of Allen Robinson or Jarvis Laundry? I have to stop there. that draft makes me sick still That was a bad trade and the axe was just. Hope we learned our lessons well |

Re: My wish list at 12
I love what Cooks brings but i agree ww should never have moved up in that draft for a WR it was so deep.
As you say Robinson,Benjamin, Landry,Brown and Bryant all went later |

Re: My wish list at 12
Not impressed with the WR class for 2016 but if I had to select one ...Josh Doctson is my choice (not just saying this because he is right down the road in Ft. Worth). Want a WR to get up and fight for the ball one on one? ... JD. A big, powerful strong dude.
