Trevor Penning is PFF’s top graded Saint; Penning is highest graded NFL OT in Week 10

It’s very likely by the time we pick in those rounds that the best players will be those positions, which I why I said that. The top half of the 1st round has a few very good d-lineman, whether edge or DT. The 2nd round I believe Tre Harris will be BPA, I think he has a chance to go in the 1st. Third and 4th round projects to have a bunch of good interior o-lineman and RB’s, along with TE’s and safeties.

Luckily for us BPA will likely align with our needs

It's funny how that happens every year. I could literally find a post from every year of someone saying this exact thing, "BPA actually aligns with our needs this year". It's just rationalizing, nothing more. And it leads to hurt feelings on draft day. But any rate, I will leave you with 2 truths...

1. There's no possible way to no that in November. None. The precise moment the Saints are on the clock, best player might be a CB. We won't know until that moment gets here.
2. Because you perceived these positions as needs, you're paying more attention to them subconsciously. Becuase you're paying more attention to attention to players at these positions, it seems like there's more better players there.
