Pickett at 16?

Also, 2 years from now players like CAM & DD will be older and maybe you can roll with a rookie in a rebuild kind of scenario. But I don't want to waste their last good years developing a QB. If the Saints wanted to do that I don't think we would have signed Jameis in the first place.

Yeah, this makes sense to me. The argument has often been that if we don't take a QB this year, we don't have a 1st to take one next year. But, just like taking one now if they think there is a franchise QB might make sense because it's a decision about the next 10 years, it also means you don't force a QB pick just to hedge your bet when you can draft one in two years when your defense is older and it makes more sense to rebuild for the long haul.

So, I think starters at two positions, hopefully a LT and WR with the right value falling, makes the most sense.

That being said, if they do think Pickett is the guy and equal to Winston now and will be better, I would understand taking him at 16, even if I don't think he is the guy.
