Payton said he would be used as the "Jack" DE, the position Jordan played last year.

What the hell else were you guys wanting?

And who knows... we actually might have a GOOD FREAKING DRAFT....
Some how we all doubt it based on experience.

The edge DE pass rusher is already on the roster.

I don't recall him stating that specifically. I do remember him saying that he'll be used more on the LOS.

I am not hating this draft and I usually do hate them.

DL - DB - OB - next OL ?
I like it adding a new body in the back fields on both sides of the ball and one on each side of the lines. We need help everywhere so good mixing it up and got some good quality guys.

"Saints head coach Sean Payton confirmed that thought process at the owner’s meeting this past Tuesday, saying that Kikaha could see a lot of action at the “Jack” defensive end spot, where Cam Jordan played last year."

We just picked up the best WR in the draft. Drew restructure dude!
