Excited about our pick at 24?

Are the Saints really that much better than the rest of the NFL?
We picked Latt over White and the Ram pick would have the LB who's not in the NFL anymore. And if Davenport's NFL career are as injury prone as his first two seasons, we will have waisted 2 first Rd pick on him.

Players do and do not work out for whatever reason. I didn’t necessarily mean the Saints hit on every pick. I just mean the Saints are better at selecting players at the values they’re held in. That’s what I would consider “better” drafting. They don’t stay at their draft selection and reach on players just because that’s what’s conventional. They’ve jumped up for their top pick in both the last two drafts and taken players that were highly coveted at slots beyond where they were expected to go. As opposed to a team like the Falcons or Texans that reached hard on offensive linemen out of desperation.
