Success drafting At 11-5 vs. 7-9

Jeff Ireland is a draft guru and was an excellent addition to the front office. As we know he joined the Saints when they met with him at the Senior bowl. He was working with limited information and bad scouting his first year here and did well enough to give us Davison and Peat.iirc

The last two drafts he nailed for us. However, he was also picking at #12 and #11 which leaves your draft board with more clarity and you can find good players who fall when you draft early. Drafting at #27 makes me wonder how many players can we expect to drop to us late in each round?

Also, we don't have five picks in the first three rounds and traded away this years second round draft pick to move up for Kamara. This alone is huge!

Good scouting also counts for a large part of our recent success I believe. Jeff Ireland is still the man in New Orleans and I'm very enthusiastic about this years draft and thing we can nail it again!
