I am not either. I do not see our 12th pick of the NFL draft as a corner stone in which to rebuild with. Even if this works out he appears to be window dressing. That key cog element I just do not see in Rankings. He will always need the players around him to set the tone so he can feed of it them. A tone setter I do not see. Reed i viewed as a corner stone. He does not need players around him to help his play. Rankings appears to be the type of player you pick to finish off a rebuild with. We needed a corner stone at DT, So the saints go into the 2016 NFL season without that key element. Making the Williams pick hard for me because Reed was still there. Sheldon and Reed together would have left us short one starting DE. Another position we did nothing to address. I wont go about that second 2nd round pick. cost was way to high for a player like him. just like throwing money around in free agency the saints are now doing the same thing with picks. scary trend when you can not win the division much less make the playoffs.

Last years picks I saw a honest chance of players being the corner stones of a rebuilding of the saints defense.

I do not see that in this draft.
Can you not consider that you are wrong and the front office may know what they are doing?
