Saints also should target Gandy golden or Bayless in later rounds

Saints could use more picks, even though their roster looks stacked. If there's an opportunity for the Saints to trade down a few spots and gain another 2nd or 3rd pick that can help.

Agree?

Also, there's an outside chance Tua drops a long way. This would be my, and Coach Payton's, dream scenario.

For the first time in a long time, I am stoked to watch every second of the Draft. Might even break open a new bottle of Bourbon. .~.

Tua will be a big bust. First he’s damaged goods in his actual strengths as a quarterback. Second the window of being open isn’t five to ten yards like at Bama, generally 0-4 yards is NFL open window. Only a handful of quarterbacks thrown the 0 yards receiver open.

I've always said draft the best lineman available, then draft to need.

Great O and D Lines lower all needs.

To my surprise seven of the top ten career passing leaders were 1st rounders. I think, I relied on memory for all of them.
