I’m inclined to think the Saints would ideally like to leave this draft w/ Bowers

I always prefer us to draft BPA over need. This year most likely those two things will overlap since we desperately need OT and there several good ones that should be there at 14. Really the only scenario I see where OT isn’t BPA at 14 is IF Bowers is still there and Alt isn’t. I fully expect both of those players to be gone by 14 but in the unlikely situation that Bowers is there and Alt isn’t, I would love the Saints to do one of two things. One, draft bowers. He will BPA and has the potential to be an unbelievable game changing weapon. In this case we could draft OT in the second and bring peat back. Will still have to address the OLine again next offseason but there is a high chance we would do that anyways since I don’t know if we can fix it in one year. Two, trade the pick to a team that wants Bowers. Don’t trade completely out of the first and pick up some extra picks. There will be someone that’s willing to pay to move up in my opinion.
