The MMQB site remembers the 2006 Saints Draft (mod edit)

King or not (and it's not), it's a good article to reminisce over the 2006 draft and realize on how many guys we hit on in that draft.

Really remarkable job coming out of the Katrina year.

Also of note, we traded back twice in that draft and it yielded great results. We ended up getting four players (2 - part of the trade back: Faine (C), and Thomas (DT), and 2-drafted: Harper (S), Evans (G)) who would all play significant roles on this team.

The iron was hot and we struck.

Yeah...this Year runs Parallel with 2006 when u look at how we rebuilt the team through every avenue in both instances.

Can we capture lightning in a bottle twice is the question.

For that matter I think our best Chance at a SB may be in a year or two when this class matures much like the 06 class
