This is A Great Draft for the Saints - all 7 picks
I loved everything we did after the 3rd round. I’m not saying we got bad players in the fist 3…. I just thought there were better players available than the ones we took…. And that we reached for whatever DA perceived to be a need / fit. I also think we are getting old, expensive, and often injured at the skill positions on offense, and that was a bigger need than rotational players on the D line. We could have gotten that in later rounds easily…. While stacking the offense with young talent like Mayer, Torrence, and Achane. After paying Carr, and signing Jamal Williams…. And watching our "offensive" offense last year…. And having no idea if MT or Peat will ever be healthy…. Or if AK will miss most of the season…. It seemed like a bad bet to go D-Line - D-Line and power back in the first 3 picks. Overall I’m fine with this draft because I love the AT Perry and Haener picks.... Gives us a potential future at 2 huge spots. I'm also fine with a Small school guard and ST flyer. I’m just gonna be pissed if we can’t score points, run a screen, attack the seams, stretch runs to the perimeter, or protect the QB from inside pressure again this year.
