Saints picking a front seven player isn't a "sure thing"

Draft insider Tony Pauline says the New Orleans Saints picking a front seven player is "not a sure thing."


Pauline instead suggests that the Saints, along with the 49ers, "will look hard at defensive backs in the early rounds of the draft." Since a specific position wasn't given, both safeties and corners appear up for grabs. The Saints are moving to a 3-4 base defense and seriously lack pass rushers.

this makes me think Kenny Vacarro & Xavier Rhodes could very well be the picks should they be on board at 15
