Pickett at 16?

What i think is going to happen is if Winston performs well he will get an extension. The year at the end of this contract can then be used to spread out the money.

No matter how you slice it Saints need a top prospect offensive lineman and a WR. IF saints use 16th pick on QB, then they will have to find either of those options in the bottom of the second. Which is very harf to find. It will not be until 2024 when Saints have shot landing a top player.

That's a good point about needing at top LT (and top WR really). It's true that we can't get a First round QB next year, but it's also true that we can't get a First round LT or WR next year. So, one of those positions is going to have to either be handled by a lower round pick or free agent until 2024. And while you may be able to get a stud WR after round 1, it's about as hard to get a stud LT after round 1 as it is to get a stud QB after round 1.

What it comes down to is whoever they take at 16 and 19, they better get it right whether it's a LT, WR, QB, or some other position.
