Malcolm Butler could be the answer to the Saints' cornerback woes but at what price?

Lombardi really pushing it will have to be the Saints 11 pick

Can i ask why everyone is ignoring the fact the front office could sign Butler to a deal at the draft and the pick will be a 2018 pick (im not mustaken here?)

Load up in a defensive draft and get Butler. Then go all out this year. Id be really tempted to do this over giving up a 2nd this year. Thos draft is deep and we are on borrowed time with Brees age so if you feel you need Butler push the boat out,throw all the chips in the pot and go for it

it doesn't appear Lombardi has a clue

Well, if the owner tells you to draft someone, you draft that someone.

It's interesting looking at both sides of this thing. Pats fans want to flat out refuse anything less than our #11 pick. Most Saints fans don't want to give up either 1st round pick. If we give them #32 both fan bases will be livid lol.

I don't know about this 11th pick - this guy isn't exactly Deion Sanders is he?

So go with 2 rookies and drop our 2 starters Bell and Kv? That would be smart. look, I agree we need safety depth but I'm happy going into the season with Bell and kv. Problem is we run a lot of 3 safety sets. That means we need a talented #3 safety that is just as talented as our #3 cb. Baker could be a nice pick up and play as a #3 but no way he starts over the other two. Obi is way over rated. Reminds me of SJB a few years back. All potential and no history of playing great.

Again, there is no way we are giving up #11.

It's all about guaranteed money right now.

Saints need to let NE keep him. He's a short corner with average speed. I think any pick higher than a 5th round pick is too high. And they'd have to pay the guy too. Let NE keep him.

I am hoping we get out 4th rounder back.
