Banjo will have to be on his A game to secure his roster spot.

He could’ve gone at the end of the 1st round and nobody would’ve called it a reach. Can play FS, SS or nickel CB.

So that leaves us with a 5th and a 7th then, guess it's not too bad. I'm ok with trading out this year's picks to move up, I just don't want to see any more if next year's picks traded.

I believe the Saints coaches feel confident that our in house guys (Tre, Kirkwood, Cook, old man Ginn) will get it done at WR/TE in 2019.

As for Gardner, this guy was rated as a 1st/2nd round player on a lot of scouts draft board. Maybe he turns out to be Malcolm Jenkins (Philly version) in a year or two.

Never mind, my math is bad. So we gave up our 5th to make this move. I definitely don't like that as much.

Just got in to work and logged on
Nice pick there, cost a bit to move up for our guys but quality over quantity is always the better move and got to players that could have gone higher

All about winning now

The Saints roster is solid. It will be extremely difficult for a 5th rounder to make the team.

Watch his youtube highlight reel. Dude is a headhunter and a ballhawk. Malcolm Jenkins never covered like that. What is the knock on this guy?

Keep in mind, Vonn Bell is a FA after this season.
