Re-examining the Johnathan Sullivan pick

I didn't understand the trade at the time, and I still don't. We had 2 consecutive picks in the first round, which could have easily gotten us 2 better players than Sullivan. Coming into the draft I thought he would be a good 2nd round pickup if he was still available, but when they traded their 2 first picks to get him?

Not a good move.

Top it off with the fact that LJ, Polamalu, and Trufant were all available (Ok, we didn't need LJ, but who on this board would not want Trufant or Polamalu?)... And I say that this was one of the worst moves for the Saints.

Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate the boldhearted move of the Saints' staff, but bad time to do it, and bad person to use it on.

But then again, what discussion are we having if he comes out as the player many expected him to be?
